Ahh the flying car dream. Nerds just loved to break my balls. The Jetsons made it seem so simple - free-flying cars and open skyways. The Fifth Element showed how that could never happen without some kind of stifling government point system.

I’ll sit back and wait for the next eat-the-rich uprising, when fatcats make a habit of coasting over gridlock, rush hour traffic.
