This guy unironically thinks that underground self-driving cars are the way we fix traffic, and not, y'know, a fucking subway.

And what? Forced into sharing space with niggers? Yeah, no thanks.
>>
>>535998965
You think Elon would be the number one public transit fan if not for niggers?
>>
>>535998833
Have you ever used the subway for daily commuting? It’s pretty disgusting and you lose a lot of time to transit authority incompetence. I guess it’s cool for getting fucked up but kids don’t even do that anymore
>>
>>535999033
No but I did use a commuter rail to get to college and it was great
>>
>>535998965
Commuter rails are 100% safe and clean, the reason people drive is because most people need to drive to get to the train station, and at that point most people just think "why bother".

Right.

>>535999200
That's not a commuter rail retard
>>
>>535998833
You as an American should know as well as anyone else that we like to do things on our own, with our own things, at our own control.
Personally, I've had to use public transport quite a lot from my teens into my early 30s, all it is is a game of endurance of having to tolerate niggers and drug addicts til you reach your destination; at least in my truck I'm by myself and I can smoke a cigarette or turn up the radio
>>
>>535999287
LOL like that fucking matters.
>>
>>535999295
The irony is that car-centric infrastructure takes control and freedom away from people. In a walking/biking/transit friendly country you can still drive if you want to. The reverse doesn't work.
>niggers and drug addicts
This problem does not need to exist
>>
>>535999370
But it does exist and there's no political will to solve it.
>>
>>535999350
It absolutely does. Even the niggers on the commuter rail mind their own business. The subway is the wild west.
>>
>>535999370
Okay, you're one of those europhile retards. Just fucking go over there
>>
>>535999399
If you're gonna go that route there's no political will to solve like any of our problems
>>
>>535998833
public transport will never be trusted by Americans unless you do something you never will.
>>
>>535999421
>just leave your home
No?
>>
>>535999475
If you want some faggy ass "walkable city" just go somewhere where that's already the prevalent lifestyle rather than force your communal bullshit on people who aren't fucking interested

> still have to drive to the train

> gets stabbed on the train
>>
>>535999584
Like I said, if you want to drive in a walkable city/suburb/town you're always free too. Nobody's saying we ban cars or single family homes.
>>
>>535999599
Just don't live in a big city. Easy peasy

Oh they sure as fuck do, and the tip of that iceberg is faggots like you trying to form a bridgehead for that bullshit

People hate each other, people are disturbed. Keeping them in their own individual conveyance solves a host of issues keeping human mammals separate.

You can recline your seat in your own car. Unless there are little Japanese people in the back seat.
>>
>>535999634
You need to pay to enter a commuter rail at the doors so you can't hop the gate, there are conductors to make sure nothing gets out of hand, you can't just aimlessly ride it around all day like you can the subway.
>>
>I WIKE TWAINS CHOO-CHOO-CHOOOOOO
Drive a car like a real American.
>>
>>535999682
Literally who is saying that anon? They still have cars and single family homes in Tokyo and the Netherlands. We just don't want acres and acres filled with nothing but unwalkable suburbs that only have housing.
>>
>>535999127
Lmao

>>535998993
This is the problem that the left can never get passed. The albatross around their neck. The white liberal's burden.

He is the modern day Edison, this is not a compliment.

>>535999803
I rode the subway for three days in Chicago. Was harassed by a crackhead on my first trip. I rode a commuter rail for three years every day. Worst that happened was two randos arguing that got broken up by the conductors and people with speakerphone on.
>>
>>535999718
Fair points I guess. But the perception of being at risk of victimization by crime is an impediment to the implementation of this type of public infrastructure.
>>
>>535999744
The U.S. was a pioneer in railroad infrastructure before WW2
>>
>>535999978
It was primarily for freight.
>>
>>536000135
Today. Not then. We used to have suburban railroads and trams everywhere, believe it or not.
>>
>>535999127
>the reason people drive is because most people need to drive to get to the train station
I'm not sure which city you live in but the majority of the USA is not like that

We're talking about suburbs here

>>535999978
so i went into a little rabbit hole about railroads back then and monopolies. There were two a west coat and east coast railroad. the east coast was vanderbilt, the charged farmers and others a lot of money but cut deals with rockefeller with standard oil. as rockefeller grew he started dictating to the vanderbilts. rockefeller is jewish, vanderbilts are episcopal catholic. vanderbilt intermingle, the last richest relative is anderson cooper at 50 million. it was robber barrons that the jews worked with until they bankrupted them all.
>>
>>535998833
The hyperloop was just a scam to fuck up Cali from building any real, meaningful infrastructure. Rich sociopaths can't make money off of government services without shitloads of corruption.
>>
>>535998833
Before that he thought a sealed vacuum tube that would almost instantly kill anyone in it if the train they are stuck in ever decompressed. Plus maglev at speeds no one has ever got it reliably to work.

Instead of you know normal high speed trains not in delusion tubes.
>>
>>536000867
The Japanese maglev is going to open relatively soon
>>
>>535998833
He's a midwit who everyone around him tells him he's a genius to keep their job.
>>
>>536000586
can you narrow it down a bit?
I'm not familiar with any type of rail system outside of a city
and I've driven through enough states that I do not believe it is common here
>>
>>536000933
"soon"
Japan's Chuo Shinkansen maglev line is expected to open in 2035 at the earliest
