We once were. We built canals, a massive railroad system, then our interstate system. Likely a sign of our slow decline to a has been country.

Today we should be building subways, a hub and spoke high speed rail system, and an automated hub and spoke freight system that uses trucks only for first and last mile. And maybe a tunnel at the Bering straight.

Presumably to connect Amerikka Oblast to Mother Russia.
