      No one cares. Non-chronically online people in other countries worry about other things. Like the delays and strikes on their own railway networks. Many infrastructure objects in China are brand-new and already crumbling.

      Our politicians don't rlly care about public transportation at all nor about any other important things that we are facing as a country. America has the potential to become a great place of transit but car companies and politicians keep rail infrastructure to a low minimum. Also if it wasn't for rail we would never have cars nor airplanes at all and other countries EVEN DEVELOPING ONES like in Dominican Republic for example have subway trains that come in on time and cleaner than most American transit systems.
