This should be a reminder that industry and corporations are responsible for the OVERWHELMING majority of carbon emissions and not the average person. Not saying nor do your part but if the planet plans on surviving we need to go after corporations

The funny thing about roads is all of the trucks and cars will destroy it faster than it can be repaired

Health care is a human right. Fuck a system that values profits more than human life. Tear it all the fuck down

Fuck privately owned utilities. Services like water, electric, gas, etc should ALWAYS be owned by the public

Sure, but there are plenty examples of it being done.
America had an intercontinental rail system in the 19th century. We know that building track over long distances is possible. Even in geographically challenging countries such as Switzerland, robust rail systems are possible. You ever see European trains? WAY nicer than anything you’ll see here.
Yes, America is unique in size, but even large nations like China are accomplishing incredible feats of public transport engineering.
Are the situations identical? No. Will it be difficult and expensive? Definitely. But isn’t America all about being an example for the rest of the world and whatnot?
Something has got to give in the US. Car focused planning is quite literally unsustainable

Not impossible. Politicians just aren’t willing to fund it.
Why let your population freely travel without the burden or expense of a car when you can just take payments from the auto industry to block mass transit plans!
