Dear United States of America, can you PLEASE invest in better transportation options so that I can have better options besides the following :

Roundtrip plane ticket with one layover: $800

Roundtrip plane ticket with one layover and having my destination be further away (30minutes to an hour) : $750

Greyhound bus, 48+ hours each way : $500

Train station, minimum $400 and 48+ hours each way: total cost unknown because the train website cannot get me tickets to my destination for the days that I'm asking for so it physically will not let me continue

Contrary to what some may think, but I actually WOULD like to see some relatives before they die

#went from relief of my grandfather having a semi treatable cancer so he isnt dying within the next year #to being reminded my great grandfather has cancer. is older. GOT COVID after having to miss three treatments due to poor health #and so YEAH its either pay for expensive tickets. hope to god hes alive if i book cheaper tickets further out. or just accept i cannot #and will not be able to see him again #what is this fucking yeae #year
