I dunno, "minimal" implies more than nothing, so they may had to track down a very rare combination of sizes of camel and eye-of-needle to prove that.

At least that'll keep them safe from being turned gay.

Yes, I think to work well the Land zoning and transport planning need to be hand in hand.
(and ideally serve people rather than car companies).

A local bus service is more efficient the denser the population it serves.

Rural densities will struggle to support/ warrant frequent bus services.

Really dense areas will more easily support more frequent bus services / netwoks and even trains / grade separated or exclusive land use for public transport.

It's no suprise that super dense places like Japan, Singapore, and desely populated European , Chinese regions have more public transport.

Add New York City to that list for that matter. Presumably NYC benefited from achieving it's density before cars became too powerful politically..

It sounds like you're saying they're livng in an effective dictatorship rather than a democracy.
They should be able to choose by the way they vote.

I dont reallly know much about how planning and public services works in the USA.

Im my country we have fluctuating quality of local and national public transport investment and maintenace, and one of the sources of variation is who they're voting in to power.

When they keep voting in individualistic self-serving leaders the public infrastructure gets shat on sometimes duismantled and snaked off outside of public control. The rare time they vote for politicians who support public infrastructure and the general public, then it improves,
however briefly.

So my country is probably average on public transport - by the sounds of things, it's generally better than most of the USA - I'd rather it be better. but I tend to accept the choices made by the electorate, saddening though it may be, this is what people want.

If i'm really that bothered about it then i have to stand for election myself.

I guess it might all come down to how free and fair the elections are and how easy it is to enter and get your manifesto heard by a fair number of people.

Darth Vader was obviously a very heavy smoker in his younger days, probably 40-a-day at least.
Never seen anakin with a cigarette.
