I want flying cars. Fuck trains. Build nuclear powered flying drone-like cars, what's the fucking problem?

I know many don't like this but i'll say my opinion again:

Public transport should be built on the coastlines, which coincidentally also are blue states, because there's a high population density and public transport makes sense there because of the frequency.

Public transport does not and never will make sense in the midwestern and rural areas of US. The major reason for this is that people there simply largely (70% of people) don't want it. You can't get something through against the will of the local population. Just deal with it. You won't be able to take a train from the East Coast to the West Coast, you'll still have to fly (or drive) that distance.
