Be sure to follow the rule before you head out.
Rule: You must post before you leave.
Yes, the US has abysmal public transport (at least in houston, tx in my case) compared to even third world countries like Egypt. It’s downright embarrassing.
Yep America was torn down and remade for cars and not people.
This is all by design of the oligarchs and their puppets in Congress. Democrats and Republicans are against progress.
I live inside the 275 loop around Cincinnati. My work is 11 miles away. In order to get to work via public transit I'd have to walk 3.5 miles to the closest bus stop, take a bus the wrong direction, wait for a transfer to another bus heading closer to work, and then walk 2.5 miles to my job. The schedule is so sparse it would take me 3-4 hrs one way and I'd be walking more than half of it. No bike lanes or sidewalks either, and the roads are so dangerous that in almost 20 years of working there I've never seen a bike attempt any of my possible routes. I have seen memorial bikes on the roadside where someone got hit.
In Egypt, a large part of public transport is from private entities, the people driving the microbus and tok tok own those vehicles. In the west, these services are expected to be funded by the government for some reason
