Whenever Europeans ask why Americans don't take public transport, it's like asking why The Emperor's New Suit never gets dirty.
Everybody knows the answer to that question, but nobody is allowed to say it.

@cjd @xaetacore Public transport is amazing, trains will get you places faster and more comfortably than cars ever can. Instead of having the courage to address the nigger problem everyone just switched to cars and created a traffic hellscape.
Public transportation should be the only transportation allowed in society, and if you don't like it change the racial composition.

I live in France, currently a rural area which is 95% white.
Even in Paris though, there is no issue with non-whites that makes public transport BAD. They're polite, quite, etc. French govt does not tolerate animalistic behavior from anyone.
Suffice to say, I'm pretty experienced with public transport - and I still prefer taking the car.
1. No waiting
2. It's not crowded
3. It's never delayed because of some technical problem
4. It goes straight to where I want to be
There's no change of racial composition that will really fix these issues. I think public transport ought to exist as an option, but in any society there are good reasons not to want that option.

@cjd @xaetacore All of your points are purely a policy problem, rail transports cargo faster and cheaper (=less crowded) than road. Secondary transportation like tram can get you to your final destination. Wait times no longer than 5 mins if you do it right.
You can't complain about the crowding and not shitskinning in the same breath, they're the same thing.

>a rural area
I don't think all of the points were purely a policy problem, unless you're one of those neoliberals that thinks everyone should live in crowded cities.

@Deplorable_Degenerate @xaetacore @cjd No I don't think so, but rural places can have trains too if there's incentive to build them. If anything a lack of trains is the reason why more people don't live in the countryside.
So a train station every 500-1000 feet is your ideal world?
Naw, just that walking for the last three miles or so anywhere you go should be normal and expected

I think what's realistic is certain roads will only allow cars that can switch into an autonomous mode where they might as well be a train. Then you drive from your house to the autoroute and at that point the car takes over and you read the paper. And the autoroute can be one lane because everything on that road is centrally coordinated.
That takes a hard problem that is very old and converts it into a solvable technological problem.
