The UK is literally a monarchy and their prime minister is an unelected goon.

The EU does subsidise it's own industry. Airbus is great because it was pumped with money which they didn't have to pay back.

They're quite expensive for a start and standard HSR does it's job just fine.

Japan is the only country that's building actual Maglev lines. It's feasible in Japan due to popularity of rail and distance between the endpoints makes it worth it.

China has Maglev tech and also some demo Maglev lines. But they are committed to standard rail because it's cheaper to build using a standardised process and works good enough on large distance travel required in China.

In the US, it's nearly impossible because Petroleum companies and such hate the idea of cheap and efficient transport and just bribe the politicians to be against it.

Western policy is based on racist stereotypes that people outside the west can't innovate. They lose their minds when it's disproven.
