Apparently all Musk wanted to do with this was undercut any attempts at high speed rail in California.

True, but 98% of that land is uninhabitable/uninhabited. If counted the area where you have more then one person per 200 miles, Australia would be much much smaller then California. The entire population is centered in 5 cities. Which is reflected pretty decently with the Australian population being 10 million people less then California.

It’s like how Canada is the second largest country in the world, but no one takes them seriously because it’s all uninhabited wastes.

I was referring more to African and European states.
