      It’s worse, they’re forcing people to be literate. This is cultural genocide on an industrial scale with see see pee wiping out the culture of illiteracy!

          Small aside, China has an extensive regular speed train network. Trains are still rather fast, but obviously slower than HSR. It is very beneficial to have both, as the slower trains are quite a bit cheaper. China has a large population, and many people take the regular train, even with standing tickets. These trains move a lot of people and are an important part of the transit system. Sometimes it feels like an inter-city metro since you can take trains at any time to any city.
