    Do you know what good mass transit could do though? Imagine cities without parking lots and garages. Imagine having spaces that are much safer and more comfortable to walk. Imagine solving the housing crisis, since you can now build downtown complexes where those parking garages were.

    Imagine getting most semis off the road and reducing road repairs by more than half.

    Trains could do a lot, and it doesn’t take much imagination.

      Yeah but if you no longer need workers, you don’t need downtowns anymore, so screw the plebs /s
