    yhea, that's not nearly as bad as paying taxes to a pedophile to finance a death camp for brown people.

    Please think about that when you're in a nice Chinese re-education camp

    You just gotta love people like you who can't fathom simple ideas like "both are really really bad"

      I know enough that it wasn't so much lobbying as it was advertising to the to the US citizens that made cars more popular. Ford figured out how to make it affordable then a bunch of companies that stood to make money on cars bought up streetcars and shut them down in favor of busses, but that doesn't actually answer the demise of long distance rail.

        That's kind of the problem though. They're not everywhere now. There's a whole lot of places that are nowhere near a train line.

          This isn't even about government styles. This is just investing in infrastructure vs not doing that.

            Congratulations, you figured out that China is a large country! It would be ridiculous to think that a country with 1.4 billion people would have less people dieing in traffic than a country with a smaller population.

            If you just go by absolute numbers, a large country will have more of absolutely everything than a small country.

            Now go back to your link and sort by "Je 100.000 Einwohner" and see how that changes the list.

            But you understand that "je Einwohner" means shit with that density of cars?
            cant have a car crash when you ride a donkey.
            per car would make much more sense but that's the least the regime would care about which is why say 50k ppl died. i guess from how much their culture sucks it is 500k per year. 🙂

              If only that metric was included in the link above. Well, luckily it is. And guess what: When sorting by "je 100 000 motorisierte Fahrzeuge" ("per 100 000 motorized vehicles"), China ranks even much better.

              Sorting by per inhabitants puts China as the 68th worst country, so 67 countries are worse. Sorting by per motorized vehicels puts China as 115th worst, so 114 countries are worse.

              When looking at "per motorized vehicles" China is on par with Lettland.

              If only there was a way to follow the link and look at actual numbers before spouting made-up misinformation.

                this misinformation you are talking about it what i am talking about! yeah. finally.
                ofcourse the numbers are MUCH higher. coercion or killing of others is legit for motorists and the governments that need the industry.

                i am sure china is always and will always be among the worst of the worst.
                one of the oldest countries and still tourture,regime government and imbecile citizens.

                    LOL.

                    If it was only about competence, I think throwing dice might yield better results than what many politicians are doing.

                    that you and nUmbErS?
                    that is called being disconnected with the world. maybe 4chan convinced you to love pervy chinese regime but "AFK" is where those cars actually drive. should check it out some time.

                      You are what appens if someone is too dumb to understand anything but extremes. Being able to understand nuance requires at least the mental level of a 10yo.

                      It is an quite extraordinary feat to be so dumb that you think a country has to be either terrible at everything or great at everything and anyone who says a country is not terrible at everything must be totally in love with everything that happens in that country.

                      Literally kindergarden level of argumentation.
