    Good transit takes decades to build. Remote workers and startups can have it today if they just move to a place that does it better, while also solving other issues, such as insane rent and the prospective of being thrown into a concentration camp.

      Better is not good enough. One place has to show the full potential of public transport, with the option for everybody to move there. That forces every other city to be equally good.

        That exists outside America, and where it exists within America, rent is too high because everyone wants to live there.

        Other cities being more livable hasn’t made the landlords and small business owners who own city governments across America decide to allow public transit.

          That’s why everybody has to move into one designated city and determine politics with their votes.

          Select a city that can be expanded and low rent will become an additional advantage.
