You can thank the car manufacturers lobby for that. Suppress any form of mass transport to sell more cars. Imagine a high speed train from Seattle to LA 5 1/2 hrs. Boston to Miami 7hrs.

Linking both coasts Oregon and Massachusetts 16hrs.

Yeah I mean I’ve done plenty of work travel and I still find planes tedious. Living on a commuter rail line is awesome. You get the best of both worlds.
