    @GOD666 @MarkHoltom For the most part, yes, but understand that you may have great power to change that locally.

    My city has a free streetcar line that runs for six miles through the heart of the city and regional bus system connecting it.

    We've also expanded bike lanes in recent years.

    None of that can happen nationally, but it could happen locally.

    I am unsure where you are, but here nearly all of that would be funded and regulated on the state level. Public transportation is usually a state or federal matter in America. That often includes bike lanes, too, since most major access ways with the most accessibility are state routes and not just streets.

    That said, I think my overall point was the social mentality and, by extension, the applied logistics our nation has towards the wealthy.

    Many Americans here practically worship the wealthy, and while they may complain about the inequality, complaining is all they do. The big problem is that many of them do not want to stop the exploitation, but rather dream of being the exploiters themselves.
