Sorry, I think you missunderstand me, I didn't mean that the US should abandon any existing rail project, but that the local public transport system if often forgotten in the talk about HSR

I'm not talking about existing rail projects either. I'm essentially agreeing with you that HSR is a distraction, but I'm also saying that intracity rail that is not HSR can be more important than public transportation inside a city, so it depends on where you are in the U.S. on which should be focused.
