The humble bus is despised by advocates of public transportation for some bizarre reason that I can only assume is a train fetish. Perhaps it's easier to avoid negros on a train? We can only guess.
It is an odd blind spot that a lot of the more intelligent ones can at least acknowledge upon confrontation of the dynamics between associated costs, benefits, and involved scales. A regular at a bar I go to who occasionally gets mildly political brought up a train line project that had been shot down before construction. I confronted him with the question of how many daily riders it takes before a train route becomes better than a route of chartered planes or buses, and pointed out that the city at one end of the line wasn't a bustling metropolis nor likely to grow into one. He accepted the point quickly and mentioned that he had never even been confronted by the idea that "the scale is wrong for this solution" before.

The real problem is that you can't have grand government projects to create a plane line allowing 800 commuters to go from city A to city B 200 miles apart every day, because you don't need a grand government effort to facilitate the acquiring of a 200 mile long stretch of land to build it.

Didn’t the government already do this by subsidizing small commuter airlines running from tiny airports?
 
is that why Jews win the nobel prizes?

ugly is an understatement
God Eviction Notice is great. I sincerely hope DoomerNat is getting money from Russia China or the muzzies because he's like if you distilled and isolated all of their pollution of online politics from the right and fed it to the kids from gummo. Your tribe should wait two years and offer that poor kid a job on the "former radical" circuit cause it's either that or being a fry cook at a strip club for him.
 
Amtrak already has bus service for those cities:

No one knows this because even transit activists don't actually ride transit.
Also with all the shit people say about trains having a nigger and crackhead problem, the buses are worse. Which is another subject none of the public transit activists want to address when they cite how great Japan is with their public transportation compared to the US.

Fun fact, some airlines also have bus routes. I once thought I was catching a connecting flight only to realise last minute the ticket was for a bus from one airport to the other.

God, I fucking love when somebody gets fucked up and they scream for a medic as if it is a videogame and you can just hover a medkit over the guy and heal his HP.
 
China has the luxury of saying 'fuck you' to anyone who stand in their way,
China also has the luxury of saying "fuck you" to future generations of its own people; construction projects plagued with cost-cutting and massive corruption that begin to fall apart soon after they're built have earned the local colloquialism of "tofu dreg".

I mean I’m pretty poor, but I couldn’t imagine taking a fucking bus
Busses are how crackheads and homeless people get around

Maybe make a two-tier public transit system with repurposed prison buses and segregated train cars. Sell the idea to the public as it being more affordable (although we all know what that really often entails these days). It wouldn't be a perfect system but it'd be a humane way to address issues with the current setup.
