    Only people that are mentally ill. Which wouldn’t happen if we actually invested in the wellbeing of our community. I honestly see no point in being so rich if I have to inhabit such a shit environment. Sadly most rich assholes chose to isolate, rather than invest in their surrounding. It’s a bit of a shit loop.

    I like Swiss trans as an example. Because they’re soo good, rich people use em, which means more investment (money and effort) goes in, which means more rich people use public transit. It’s the same loop but in reverse.

    On a side note I always find it funny seeing presidents on the news commute. In Europe, often enough they have like 2 people accompany them as they just fucking walk next to regular citizens, meanwhile in the US, Russia and China, anybody hopping the designated perimeter gets tackled.
