You can drive for 16 hours and still be in Texas, the european mind cannot comprehend this! <

Yeah because driving 16 hours straight is stupid because you would just take the train and be driven 16 hours straight.

Car centric infrastructure should have never been introduced.

I never get this argument of US Americans against public transport. Even in europe most public transport happens within one city, I don't regulary drive to another country

I think most Americans like the idea of public transport, and including a robust national rail network. The reason it doesn't exist are the oil and automotive lobbies. (Mostly oil.). Poorly educated Americans (the ones wearing MAGA hats) are easy to manipulate by these groups, as well.

The MAGA people rarely travel outside of their county and think going to Applebees in the nearest college town of 5,000 is going to the big city. Why they hate it.

They act like it their tax dollars when in fact most of them don’t work and sit around in their Methlandia towns on fake fibromyalgia disability claims.
