The Americans produced the Interstate system 50 years ago, . The problem is that the American system in 2020 has become stuck due to the rise in partisanship and the elimination of pork-barrel horse trading.

The Chinese state can produce projects, but how valuable they are is often up for question; the Urumqi high speed line doesn't even make enough money to pay for the electricity to run the trains. https://www.ft.com/content/ca28f58a-955d-11e8-b747-fb1e803ee...

There's also the question of maintenance.

America's problem isn't with building new roads, it's with maintaining them.

Building new is easy. Let's see how China fares in 50 years when it has to maintain an aging infrastructure.
