- stetrain 2y agoI’m not sure you understand what I want then. I never said I want the US to have the same level of public transit ridership as the Japan, or replace all car journeys with trains. I was specifically responding to a quote that trips of 50-300 miles are too long for public transit. That is demonstrably untrue around the world. And using that as a justification to try to solve the problem using personal airplanes instead of real working solutions that scale to high capacity at low emissions seems silly to me.
