    I lived in Seoul all my life. I have never seen a subway train being delayed. You can transfer free between subways and buses and all the bathrooms and such are always clean. The stations are normally connected to malls, marts, trains, and airports so you can have access to all that without leaving the underground. Also every subway train has fast free wifi available, and it costs less than 2 dollars for adults to use the subway.

      Don't forget this type of media still has an enormous bias, they are still private business, half of what Hassan dose could be considered product placement in a form of Parodies
      en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Product_placement#Parodies
      Also how often dose the criticism reach the level of systemic analysis("X is happening because of some fundamental aspect of the system we live in" like the profit incentive and private property ownership) VS how often is the criticism kept at a level of "some bad apples" (individual criticism, this company or person did a bad thing)
      Because the later type of criticism is trivial, virtually all societies produced such critics and tolerated them.
      So how often do you hear Hassan, John Oliver, Trevor Noah talk about the systemic analysis of these issue and how much is it just "some bad apples"

    As a citizen of central Florida. Having the Sunrail, has helped me gain employment in areas that would otherwise be only accessible by car. Even though service is good during the week, the lack of service at nights and weekends does cause some issues for the Sunrail and my work hours. We need more support and funding for all forms of public transport. Not just roads. We need funding for trains, trams, buses, lightrail and many others.

    And the thing is, public transit has the association with low-income people and by extension, the mental concept is black and brown people. This bias, subconscious or not, is driving a lot of this apathy and unwillingness to invest in public transit. But public transit is one of those things that while the most benefit might be for those who need it to get around, it's actually hugely beneficial for everyone else as well. I don't want to sit in hour-long traffic jams every day to and from my job in the city. I don't want to pay for gas or parking. Less driving also means my car doesn't have as much wear and tear and that translates to less money spent on repairs or checkups.
    It's better for the environment, it's space-saving not to have to build such big roads for so many cars and with options like trains or subways, it's also much much faster than if you were driving. Except these corporate fuckers just had to come in and ruin things for everyone else like always.

    I'm from Milwaukee and live near the Zoo interchange. It took a long time to build, but it is a marvel of engineering, and really beautiful to look at. I'm glad that at least they could finish it. I wish we could all get behind other projects like this. I would love to see us be more like Japan. I don't know any large city that doesn't benefit from at least some public transit. I have always thought monorails would be in our future.
    Corruption needs to be illegal!
    We need a variety of types of transit in any city. My sons take the bus, and we moved where we live to be right on a good bus line. We have advocated for better funding for busses, and other forms of public transit. Advocating really works. We went as a family to talk to our Mayor, our representatives, and Scott Walker. He's from my town, and my kids went to the same school as his kids. In our city, we now have more and better bike lanes and bike bridges, and even a trolley system now.
    I do a lot of walking and we have some really nice off road paved and unpaved walking paths and dog walking paths through the woods along the river. As well as off road biking trails right through the city but in wooded areas.
    I would love to see city planners work on having more walkable communities, like mine. I can get anything I want or need within two miles of my house. And we are on all the bus lines to downtown.
    Our public transit is underfunded, but I was so happy to see our busses become completely accessible. My son uses a wheelchair, and the busses were too hard to take for regular use, so I had to drive him everywhere for the longest time. I think you missed an opportunity to talk about how busses are important for the disabled and elderly. It's also super important for caregivers because generally these are low wage jobs that can't support a car.
    I think some people here oppose public transit because our city is so segregated. The differences in lifestyle between one area and the next can be like traveling to another country over a span of just a few blocks. We are right on the edge, and the city struggles with potential crime wherever the busses are. So some people blame public transit. However, I sometimes wonder if the allocated money is really all getting to the busses and bus drivers.
    I hate it when politics gets in the way of doing anything. We had this downtown interchange that sat unfinished for maybe 20 years. I'm glad it was rerouted to leave our beautiful lakefront with Lake Drive alone. It became a joke as "the highway to nowhere." You can see it in the original Blues Brothers movie.
    We needed to fix the zoo interchange, but holding one project hostage to another is not the way to go. This just slows government down to a halt. Advocate for what you want, people do listen, but don't just oppose something other people are doing. If the Koch brothers want to make money investing in petroleum products, that's great, but interfering in various other types of transportation is not true competition. It's corruption.
    We all fund the things the Koch brothers are doing, it's our money they are using. We are buying their petroleum. We are investors in their companies. We can disinvest from them. We can buy different types of energy and use different types of ways to get around.
    Every dollar you spend is a vote for more of that. And the good thing is, you get to decide.

    A group that gets kind of left out in this public transport conversation is those with some kind of disability that means they can’t drive. For example, my eyesight is bad enough that I can’t drive, and I’m lucky enough to live in a place with great public transport infrastructure. If you disregard your public transport, you disregard the people who can’t drive for medical or financial reasons. Just imagine how tough it would be for someone who doesn’t have the use of their legs or someone who is fully blind to commute without good public transport. Without a good public transport infrastructure, they’d either have to pay a lot of money for flats close to their work, or pay lots of money for taxis to work.

    I'm in Phoenix and I know that the light rail has been a boon to the communities surrounding the train! And the train is nice, clean and convenient. I wish it would expand into my neighborhood.
    Traffic is bad here and our public transportation in general is just not good enough. I lived in Seattle and took the bus everywhere, but here in Phoenix it takes me two hours to go 20 minutes down the road. We desperately need better public transportation. Our highways already have tons of lanes and it isn't solving our problems with congestion. Also, it doesn't help people who can't afford multiple cars and who would really benefit from a good public transportation system. (Me!)
    Additionally, the air quality is crap and all of the concrete is making Phoenix hotter than it's historic averages. There are just so many ways that Phoenix would benefit from a good public transportation system. I'm showing this video to anyone who will sit still long enough to watch it.

Our best chance for public transit is public private partnerships. It is not the core competency of most individuals that work in government. If we really cared about affordability we would work on this a longtime ago. I think procuring land near transit stops affordable housing units and property taxes/impacts fee to allocate money to longterm train line maintenance.

    Here in Albuquerque we had a kinda ok city bus system, but then the previous mayor decided to push through the so-called ART (Albuquerque Rapid Transit) along the main central road appropriately named Central Avenue. The system was built, had to be redone a few times due to the heights of platforms not matching the new bus doors, traffic striping, and signals not working. The buses came but then were sent back due to leaking batteries (the buses were electric), and numerous defects. The contract for the buses was cancelled, went to court, renegotiated, a new bus contractor was found and signed on as the bus provider. Meanwhile where Central Avenue used to have really good double bendy buses and regular buses running back and forth efficiently and two full lanes for car traffic we now have no ART buses since no buses have been shipped here, Central is down to one lane for cars each way and the cost of course quadrupled in the all this process. Not to mention the disruption to businesses to construct the ART system in which many businesses closed their doors no customers could get to them. The ART project was clusterfuck from the beginning, middle and we have yet to see the end.
