Air travel was very different before 1978. The government directly set all interstate airline ticket prices, at a level roughly 3-4x the current cost. It was luxurious because airlines could only compete on luxury and amenities. Also airplanes were 3-4x less fuel efficient per passenger mile.

Did GM buy the streetcars in San Francisco?
David HoIs everyone aware of the General Motors streetcar conspiracy? In the mid-20th century, auto and oil interests bought up electric streetcar systems across the US and systematically replaced them with bus routes and paved roads, funneling commuters toward private cars.
Trump had about 6.4 million votes in Texas and 6.1 million votes in California.
