武汉高铁建成通车后,美国网民的反应
美国很热门的政治讨论类论坛freerepublic上网民看到中国的武汉那条世界最快的铁路只用了4年就建成通车后,情绪激动,以下是美国人的回复和简要翻译:It is amazing how quickly things may be built when you don't have to worry about appeasing the environmentalist. It's as simple as that.

我很惊讶, 在没有环保主义疯子干扰下, 工程的进度可以如此之快
China is doing incredible things while we rot and decay ...

中国正在创造伟大,而我们却在腐烂和衰败
I have to admit that I love the station architecture. Bright and open with the trains right out on center stage, not shoved into a dark basement like they are at Union Station here in Chicago. The Chinese measure their success by the things they build, and they are justly proud of their feats of engineering. Where we turn out ethnic studies graduates they turn out electrical engineers.
I worry most about adversaries that are builders. The fanatics burn out, you can outlast them like we did with the Russians. The thieves destroy themselves. But the builders grow stronger with every day that goes by.

必须承认,我很喜欢他们明亮的火车站设计,比芝加哥那个灰色阴暗的火车站强多了.
中国人用伟大的工程来衡量他们的成就, 为自己的工程奇迹自豪,而我们现在成天浪费时间在种族关系学科上,他们则学习电子工程.
我最担心我们对手的实力就是他们的工程师,狂热的意识形态信徒很好对付,就如我们对付俄国人那样, 但工程师会每时每刻不断变强.

I also note that there were no UNION Thugs/Leeches getting their 25% cut on this deal and drawing this construction out to a typical 15-25 years.
For a comparison compare notes on the Boston Big Dig which was 350% over budget and still 20+ years overdue... but hey its a Democrat construction job in a overwhelmingly democrat state.

他们根本没有工会的吸血鬼
看看我们的波士顿的工程,由于贪婪的工会吸血鬼,预算超支350%,还得延期20年以上, 这就是民主党的建筑效率,民主党的国家
Our engineers told the Chinese the Burma Road would cost millions and take 10+ years. They did it in a year for peanuts.

我们的工程师告诉缅甸那路需要大量金钱和10多年才能建成, 结果中国人用了1年和很小的花费就建成了那路
China has been a society of builders from before the Communists, and will still be builders long after they are gone. The Grand Canal, Great Wall, in the same way that militant civilizations celebrate their generals builder civilizations celebrate their engineers. America was once a builder civilization. We celebrated the skyscrapers of New York and Chicago, the Hoover dam, and the Saturn V moon rocket. Today we celebrate Tiger Woods and Lady GaGa. Something happened in the 1960's we changed from builders to consumers. We lived for 50 years on the legacy built up by 184 years of frantic building. But that legacy is exhausted and we much now either rediscover our builder heritage, or become another Rome, that once built great things, and now survives by selling tours of the ruins.

中国在土星共同体以前就是个建造者的文明,大运河,长城,就如好战者庆祝他们的将军一样庆祝自己的工程师.
我们美国以前也是建造者的文明,我们曾经为纽约和芝加哥的摩天大楼,胡佛大坝,土星5火箭无比自豪, 而现在我们却只关心体育和娱乐明星的花边新闻, 我们已经50年来躺在我们父辈180多年的艰辛劳动的遗产上睡大觉了,等老本吃光后,我们要么重拾祖先建造者的传统, 要么像罗马帝国那样,曾经建造了伟大,现在则靠祖先遗产的废墟吸引游客来度日.
California is still waiting for its LA to SF high speed rail line to be built. Which will take a lot longer than four years!

加州还在等待落山及到旧金山的高速铁路计划的批注,这审批已经超过4年了,而中国人已经把铁路造完了
Yeah, we couldn’t finish environmental impact studies in four years.
If we tried to build a transcontinental, high speed rail line, the Chinese & Japanese would be using Star Trek style transporters before we ran the first train.

The phrase heard around the Big Dig project was “don’t kill the job”, which meant don’t get the job done right the first time. Or even the second.
===============================================
波士顿那延期20年预算超标350%的工程,现在还在“没有减少就业机会”的阶段,也就是说,大概我们还得试2-3次才能知道成功与否(讽刺)
What a remarkable feat of engineering!!!
I wish we could build something like that. But unfortunately we lack the engineers/specialists due to an educational system that’s geared towards creating unproductive serfs.

Faster and cheaper as well, since these trains run on electricity(which can be generated locally) rather than imported petroleum based jet fuel.

劳动力便宜,而且全世界的东西现在都是中国生产的,因此运输也快,大概这就是为什么中国人能这么快搞定吧
">>Never under estimate the power of a cheap and well educated labor force...<<" If labor cost was the only factor, than India and Africa would be building such systems as well. China has the huge numbers of competent engineers and technicians necessary to pull this off.

跟我们的世贸中心遗址形成鲜明对比,8年过去了,现在还是个大土坑
"Totalitarian regimes are always efficient but ineffective."
I'm not sure I would agree with the "ineffective" part - nefarious to be sure, but not ineffective.
Unlike the Soviets Union, who didn't engage in the kind of super-Neo-Capitalism that China does, I don't believe that China will collapse under the weight of itself. China has somehow managed to maintain a firm grip on its citizens, while also using the unquestionable benefits of its manufacturing and trade policies with the west. We are, for the first time in history, supplying the capital requirements of our enemy through the mechanism of (somewhat) free markets. It's a very strange dynamic, and one that - so far - China has been very adept at exploiting.
=============================
集权国家既有效率又没效率?
我不同意中国效率低
跟苏联不同,中国现在在经济上搞得是超级新资本主义,效率极高,我不指望中国会像苏联那样由于自己经济的缺陷而崩溃,中国现在通过跟西方的贸易,很牢固的掌握了国内的民心。
而我们,感谢自由市场经济,历史上第一次向我们的敌人输出资本,而中国人现在很会利用这点来削弱我们。

A great society is not defined solely by the big buildings and monuments it builds. Most of the world’s greatest inventions of the past century that made our lives better, longer and easier were made in the USA.

伟大的社会不光靠建筑成就来定义,人类上世纪大部分科技发明都是美国创造的
That is very true. We must also remember that during the 19th century, the U.S was the greatest perpetrator of technological theft/industrial espionage in the entire world. And considering that China is now in the top 3 in terms of annual technology patents when 20 years ago, it wasn’t in the top 50, this is alarming news.
===============================
确实如此,不过别忘了,19世纪时美国是全世界侵犯知识产权和抄袭模仿最多的国家,中国现在已经是世界上申请技术专利第三多的国家了,而20年前,他们连前50都不算,这是令人警醒的信号

Paying the workers 60 cents an hour is also a big help, in getting things built quickly and on budget.

Or about opposition and mere diversity of opinion. The Soviet Russia has also completed its projects quickly. Whether they were indeed in the interest of "the people" has never been discussed or questioned.

谬误常常是无心的。窜改或隐瞒事实却是故意的,因此比谬误还要坏得多。 保守派本来就反劳工,所以美国资本家羡慕中国,其一;
外人只看到光鲜,所以形象工程最符合外国人胃口,其二;
票价问题他们不关心,造价问题,费用回收问题也不关心,跟报销党时一样的,其三。
