So, what you're saying is that rich people are murderers? That's a pretty good reason to take their money right there. When rich people are paying less percent in taxes than me and you, that's not fair.

I don't know if electric monorails would be too expensive or what, but there are plenty of considerations to take along with the idea. Taxes would probably go up to fund that kind of project - but what if there were enough monorails that you most people didn't need a car anymore? What if the tax increases were less than the cost of owning a car? What if taxes for road maintenance go down because we're driving cars less? What if every one of us ends up saving money in the end? I think it's important not to dismiss an idea simple as "too unrealistic" when these kinds of revolutionary ideas can transform our world and save us money at the same time.
