Your point of mass-transit is salient. The extension of building effective mass-transit systems throughout USA would be a real employment cash-cow for communities, states, and the nation.
China has just recently set a new world speed record for its new bullet-train. New Jersey's governor canceled its rail tunnel project with New York. One chooses to move forward the other backward.
Sad to say the dumb governors of so many states have already painted themselves and their states out of the future's pictures.

So anyhow, yes, we need better mass transit. When I'm old and decrepit, I want to live somewhere that mass transit exists, because otherwise I'm a menace on the roads. But even the best mass transit in the Western US isn't anywhere near as convenient as your own personal automobile. My feeling here is that where there's geographical space to support their use (i.e., car-oriented cities), you'll pry people's car keys out of their cold dead hands, and not one bit sooner.
