High speed railways alike the ones in Europe and Japan should have been built in the US a long time ago. But because of corrupt legislative branch the airways lobbyists managed to prevent that.

Any time I look for travel on Amtrak it's more expensive, takes longer, and has fewer options than air or bus. It might be nice as an experience, but just really not practical for most.

Not sure if this has been addressed, but it's worth repeating: These deals are ONLY for the routes listed as "sample fares," so they're always very limited. Not actually cross-country.
