and not everybody works in that specific city

2020-12-19 22:27:00 UTC  

the amount it would cost to staff and get vehicles and such out there wouldn’t work

2020-12-19 22:27:25 UTC  

the only type of transportation you’ll see out there are trains taking people to their jobs in the city

2020-12-19 22:27:48 UTC  

I like trains a fuck ton

2020-12-19 22:27:51 UTC  

To me the suburbs look pretty densily populated tbh

2020-12-19 22:27:59 UTC  

Where do you live?

2020-12-19 22:28:02 UTC  

and what are you using?

2020-12-19 22:28:08 UTC  

Countryside in Sweden

2020-12-19 22:28:12 UTC  

exactly

2020-12-19 22:28:17 UTC  

In the US

2020-12-19 22:28:23 UTC  

I live in the most densly populated suburb

2020-12-19 22:28:26 UTC  

Philadelphia

2020-12-19 22:28:28 UTC  

outside of it

2020-12-19 22:28:38 UTC  

and here, we're spread out wayyyy far

2020-12-19 22:28:51 UTC  

we can't use public transport except for schools

2020-12-19 22:29:04 UTC  

other cities are even farther spread

2020-12-19 22:29:09 UTC  

it's just not economical for the states

2020-12-19 22:29:56 UTC  

I am not sure how the distance is the issue?

2020-12-19 22:30:50 UTC  

You would still have to travel it regardless, the issue is the amount of demand for public transport

2020-12-19 22:30:54 UTC  

we live at least 50+ miles away fro even some other suburbs

2020-12-19 22:31:18 UTC  

dang

2020-12-19 22:31:19 UTC  

Nobody uses public transport, and at that, more people live in my State alone than the entirely of Sweden

2020-12-19 22:31:20 UTC  

Who was teh bitch that ping

2020-12-19 22:31:30 UTC  

so there is an issue

2020-12-19 22:31:45 UTC  

a very, 345 million large nation, of an issue

2020-12-19 22:32:06 UTC  

Most of your daily transportation goes through those distances of 50+ miles?

2020-12-19 22:32:24 UTC  

but you would have to route many, many more buses to accomodate those extra people

2020-12-19 22:32:32 UTC  

nobody here rides the bus from my suburb to Philly

2020-12-19 22:32:38 UTC  

and most people don't even work in Philly

2020-12-19 22:33:06 UTC  

If it worked, I'd throw my support behind it

2020-12-19 22:33:09 UTC  

but it just doesn't

2020-12-19 22:33:17 UTC  

I don't know what to tell you

2020-12-19 22:34:20 UTC  

I am not sure if you get what I mean, I am talking about making the daily necessary travel public. If you wanna go visit someplace 50+ miles away that I hope you dont work at cause thats a long way to go everyday then you could use private means of transportation

2020-12-19 22:35:02 UTC  

but making people use it for grocery shopping and banking?

2020-12-19 22:35:10 UTC  

those are essential

2020-12-19 22:35:19 UTC  

Yeah the more essential stuff

2020-12-19 22:35:46 UTC  

we'd have to raise taxes in order to fund extra busing, SEPTA here in my town already has 15 buses, and nobody uses them

2020-12-19 22:35:52 UTC  

because our cars are more fuel efficient

2020-12-19 22:35:57 UTC  

now than ever before

2020-12-19 22:36:02 UTC  

the buses we have are from '06

2020-12-19 22:36:05 UTC  

and use so much fuel
