Walmart is interested in moving a lot of stuff at scale. Apparently they wanted to help build a massive superhighway from mexico to somewhere in the midwest. It's a great idea. Walmart should be taking much more initiative in all of this as one of the only entities that can feasibly take on Amazon. I wish the President would make a national strategy over this 'Digital Pathways Act 2030' - i.e. make all major highways, railroads, and other 'rights of way' completely autonomous and electric by 2030. Even for human passenger cargo - long-haul buses may actually compete with trains on price and comfort if they were fully autonomous - especially for shorter routes. One of the problems with 'trains' in America is that the US is a little spread out, trains can't just go downtown to downtown - but autonomous buses could. So this could be like quasi-public transport initiative from at very least New England down to DC - that entire corridor. What we need is someone to 're-brand' bus travel and make it social acceptable for middle/upper class folks to ride instead of the agrarian/lower-class greyhound. Nothing against greyhound but it's just not the experience many people want.
