    Very true. A modernised, cheap train system would be wonderful… I live in Europe so I can’t complain that much but still, better collaboration across European borders would be amazing.

      lmao ‘better collaboration across european borders’

      I mean we should always be working towards more progress but the EU has been collaborating in a peaceful manner never seen before in human history, and to hold EU citizenship gives you privilege over pretty much the entire rest of the world. Public infrastructure is super advanced compared to shitholes like the US.

        I mostly agree with your points, but improvements are always good, no? You sound weirdly aggressive about this. I’m also European btw.

          Not trying to be aggressive but I live in America where public services like that are rare and inefficient so it’s annoying to see someone complain who is from the most developed place in the world. Nothing personal. and true that you should always be progressive

      Currently live in Portugal and the rail network sucks. Talk of a high speed link through Spain but Spain doesn’t want to play ball. Central Europe has great rail but move to the edges and it’s absolute ass. (Have lived in Germany and France where the situation is much better)
