I note with interest that you are repeatedly posting the same cherry-picked factoid.

Average cost per mile for new track in the USA can be anywhere from $100mil/mile to over $1billion/mile for complicated projects like tunneling. This is roughly 50% higher than Europe - most likely for the simple fact that they have a larger industry for it. These are both quite high on an international scale- China builds new track for 24-48mil USD per mile.

Not having children doesn't solve anything. That's just an abandonment of the future. It directly harms people who need help - the elderly, those with disabilities and medical conditions, etc.

Ooo, that could be too.

I mean, you are paying someone else to do those things for you. Or if you want to quibble over verbs, paying someone else to cause harm to animals for you.

If it’s not currently possible for you to eat a less harmful diet, that's one thing. There's a ton of ways that our lifestyles can cause harm, and it's perfectly fine if you're just not in a good place to change one particular aspect of it. Refusing to acknowledge the harm that you are causing is frankly much more concerning. From understanding comes action, after all.

Bravo. Well said.

Unless you’re in Star Wars, where space apparently has friction.

Which I'm fine with, to be honest. It looks cool on screen = ship it.

You're attempting sarcasm, but it kinda falls flat when the liberals did indeed line up to give more funding to Israel right alongside the conservatives.

Limit the speed of private vehicles mechanically, the same way they do with ebikes.

Conical shades on streetlights and yellow light to reduce interference with sleep.

Also: fewer fucking cars.
