Chiming in from Los Angeles, USA to say wow, must be nice living in a modern society that prioritizes public transit and peoples' ease of movement. I know, I know, it comes with trade offs of living in an authoritarian state, but the absolute abysmal state of infrastructure in this country is maddening. Ever been on a train in Denmark or Japan or Switzerland?

Mexico City has excellent public transit without the authoritarianism.

So does Melbourne. (Yes you can nitpick lots of things, but overall it works and gets slowly improved)
