This would make many people reconsider regional flights from NYc to Boston, DC, Philly. Especially when you add up travel time to the airport and airport security.

It’s bizarre to me the resistance to alternative, more sustainable, environmentally friendly methods of travel.
I’ve heard people ***** and whine about how they love American muscle and would never drive a hybrid.
Nobody is taking away your ability to travel abroad. Stop with the fear mongering when the only ones shook are the ones scared of losing everything they hold dear.

The same free market that’s known about climate change at the hands of big oil since the 70s but has published a false agenda in order to preserve their interests?

Margins do not equal efficiency. Airlines are a loss business. Look it up, Airlines have merged not due to competition, but due to necessity. Airline travel makes sense to two industries, car and airline.
Mass rail transit needs to happen now.

Unless you work for a car company or an airline company there is literally no reason to be against rail expansion.
Ah, we shouldn't give a **** about the environment because of your selfish reasons. Got it!

No it doesn’t. It plans to make them obsolete.
It doesn’t say we’ll come take da hemi and you can hop on the bus.
It’s just saying they’ll be obsolete. It doesn’t mean you can’t burn rubber as a hobby.

Man I clearly wasn't referring to that. But if you want to go there cow emissions have an impact on the environment, they obviously put it that way for a humorous slant.
