Can’t get an Uber or any deliveries

Ever heard of public transport and delivery bikes?

Now it’s winter and you can’t cycle

Skill issue

Injuries preventing bicycling

Ah yes, let’s force them to buy a car instead or walk for 3 hours to the nearest grocery store

You have a kid and two jobs?

Won’t need two jobs if you aren’t paying thousands a year on a car

You’re looking at it from a coast to coast perspective when it should really be an intra-state one.

People aren’t regularly traveling from Chicago to La on a daily basis, even by plane. They are traveling within the same state or to nearby states instead.

Dallas-Houston, SF-LA, Miami-Orlando are all distances that people have to drive/fly to on a daily basis that could easily be replaced by hsr.
