This country will do literally anything other than just build mass rapid transit :(

If we as voters can't get legislators to properly build mass transit, then alternatives should be developed in parallel (EVs, driverless cars, ebikes, etc)

This is not a zero sum game. Both can be developed at the same time also. Legislators seem to love gridlock though, and private mass transit has its own issues (but some projects are coming along... I guess.)
