Los Angeles had a world-class transit system a century ago. Now, drivers sit in gridlock while trains sit empty. The city’s leaders wasted billions on a subway system that doesn’t work for real people. This is what happens when bureaucrats ignore common sense.
LA’s subway forces everyone through downtown like New York, but LA isn’t New York. Families here live spread out across sunny neighborhoods, not crammed into dirty apartments. The “experts” built a system for downtown elites, not hardworking folks in the suburbs.
The former Metro bigwig says they need more lines connecting neighborhoods. Sure, but where’s the money coming from? Taxpayers already got robbed for this boondoggle. Throwing more cash at government incompetence won’t fix anything.
They talk about “local connections” with buses and bikes. Typical government doublespeak. You know what works? Your car. Freedom to go where you want, when you want, without waiting for some broken-down train.
Building new rail today takes decades thanks to red tape and radical environmental rules. Meanwhile, China builds entire cities overnight. America’s greatness is being strangled by woke regulations.
Only 213,000 riders use LA’s trains daily. That’s less than 2% of the population. Real Americans drive. We don’t need smelly subways packed with criminals and homeless camps.
New York’s subway works because millions have no choice.
