How is the experience of riding a subway in America Vs. China

[@MeemeeChern-wm9nt]

The America Subway has been in service over 100 years; China just constructed may be 20 years ago. You can’t compare the New York subway with the newly constructed subway in China. It’s like compare an old Royce with Tesla. The US has free flow of people whereas China controls the movement of people and especially certain ethnic groups like Uighur and Tibetan. The number of death result from crime on New York subway can’t come close to the Zheng Zhou subway flood one year ago. The number of deaths reported over thousand. So much for new defective subway system.

[@RafaGoesAround]

When comparing technologies used for the construction and operation of the subway, yes, you are absolutely right, China is newer and more advanced, nothing to compare there. But when it comes to maintenance, safety, cleanliness, punctuality and efficiency, you can’t justify America for not complying with basic standards. That “freedom” you are talking about is now allowing drugs, deadly massive shootings, social inequality, these are serious problems that China would never see. Anyway, this video is focusing on how the experience of riding a subway is totally different in world class cities such as Beijing, Chengdu, Hangzhou, Shenzhen, Hong Kong, Guangzhou, Wuhan, Nanjing, Harbin, Chongqing, Shanghai or Suzhou, rather than the one you can get in San Francisco, New York or Philadelphia. Thanks for watching

[@fukinyouup]

@@RafaGoesAround It has nothing to do with the system of government -- Japan is a democracy but has one of the cleanest and most punctual transit systems in the world. New York City is just incompetent in running its metro system. America has literally one of the worst public transportation systems in the world, I don't know why people think they're making a point when they compare American public transportation to other countries. The New York Times publishes an article every week about how awful the MTA is. Berlin, Amsterdam, London, Paris, Zurich, Stockholm, Tokyo, Seoul, Taipei, etc. all have very clean and modern transit systems with 97-99% punctuality and New York has a punctuality of like 60%. You can have a country with punctual transit that also manages to not imprison people for simply protesting against the government.

100% agreed! As a New Yorker who used to live near Philadelphia for a while, the sad reality is that the MTA in NYC is one of the best public transit systems in the US... which is more a commentary on how HORRIBLE public transit is in the United States than anything else. The automobile industry absolutely CRUSHED any real prospects for public transit growth from the 1950s onwards under the false promises of car ownership for all offering a more comfortable and upscale alternative, when in reality it only lead to a large portion of the American landscape being a desolate mess of parking garages and generic shopping malls that you can see anywhere in the country, with an insurmountable wave of endless traffic jams.

We should be asking why are there so many mentally ill people in the US. Think about it, the richest country in the world should also be the most hopeful, has the most resources available, has the highest happiness, least stress country in the world. Yet, Americans are constantly some of the most overworked, indebted, stressed, least hopeful and has the least amount of resources available for themselves and their family. IIRC, 60% of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck. Is it really overspending, or is it that everything is expensive, and Americans are extracted for the wealth? Even if we assume that Americans are indeed overspending, where does the culture of overspending, indebtedness come from? Who created such a culture? Who can possibly social engineered and manipulate 300 million people into constantly overspending, and over-consume? Who has created a culture of alienation, selfishness, self-centeredness and complete lack of civic duty and community? Who really have the power to do that in the USA? Yes, it's the capitalists. Every problem in America, healthcare, racism, low savings, instability, over-consumption, selfish, depressed mentally-ill culture can be traced back to the American bourgeoisie, the capitalist, the oligarchs, the plutocrats that have designed and enforced a system of over-exploitation both at home and aboard.

It's restricted and are state owned, or at least state majority shares companies that are privately ran. It's not just capitalism that made Singapore successful. It s a blend of socialism and capitalism with a strong centralized control and decentralized execution of policies. Sounds familiar?
