the solution is subways.

basically everything is research scale right now, and we need to do full scale tests to make sure everything works and learn how to optimize things. there’s also non-DAC options to work on too

Yeah the population bomb fizzled (although family planning policy being widespread probably makes it another ozone layer) and upside down population pryamids are a more realistic scenario

I always like to say that the number of cars on the road should decrease by 90%. The other 10% accounts for every Edge case you can think of because if you look at the clogged freeways you don’t see masses of Paratransit Vans or people hauling furniture taking up all the space

Considering how most rural towns in America are dying anyways you can ignore them and build for the urban future
