They’re not a glitch, they’re the natural end result. When you have an economic system that rewards those with the most money, those with the money with have the most advantages and be the most successful. Naturally, over time, money will consolidate at the top.

Of course you can impose things like regulations or taxes, but that’s subverting the natural course of capitalism. You’re literally doing things to prevent the system from working as designed.

Billionaires aren’t a glitch of capitalism, they’re a feature.

Fortunately local public transit would most likely come out of city budgets, while high speed rail would be state/federal. We absolutely could (and should) do both at the same time.

You know, if we weren’t spending the money on that 7th highway lane that will surely fix traffic this time, or the 200th empty asphalt field that’s used only 5% of the time but we need to keep around on the off chance that the entire town gets the urge to go grocery shopping at the same time.

Why not both, and then we can travel vast distances and never need a car at any point in the trip?

it’d make sense if it was optional for the person making a crosspost.

sometimes you’d want the crosspost and original to be linked because the audiences are similar (say, crossposting a speedrun for a game to both that games community and the speedrun community), and sometimes you’d want them to be separated (say, crossposting something to a BestOf style community)
