Yeah, l ts not design roads to make people want to drive the right speed, let's just continue with the 1960 mentality that ll roads must be like highways and continue being surprised that people drive too fast.

Let's also not design cities for people, let's design them for cars. Car manufacturers say we need more and bigger cars so let's demolishh nice buildings for more hellish parking lots. Climate change is a hoax as we all know, so let's not design cities for people where they can walk and cycle everywhere because we know that the 25 minute city is a conspiracy theory to make the frogs gay.. or something..

I'm so tired of reading shit about shit that could be fixed so easily. It's like watching somebody wipe their ass with their hands and complain about shit on their hands and I'm just sitting here waving with toilet paper but they just look at me like I'm crazy.

People deserve this shit because they don't want solutions

In the US, we don't use the government for the collective good of the people. If it's something that individuals and small groups can do themselves, it's "not the government's job."

Managing speeding? Post on social media about how people need to slow down. Do what grandma do.

Feeding school children? Have a food drive one time a year for the community and forget about it the rest of the time.

Need to pay for medical care? Run a Go Fund Me and get your neighbor's help.

Many americans will open their pockets for small charities, but god forbid you tax them a little more so that everyone benefits from a more efficient system.

We the people apparently want to feel empowered to run an inefficient system ourselves.
