It never ceases to amaze me how much of a gulf there's in this regard between the US and most other somewhat advanced countries, especially europe and east asia. Especially considering how the US used to have great public transit and just tore most of it out because hurr not profitable.
Public transit is reasonably comfy here in Switzerland, it's fast and frequent and gets you everywhere. When you get near the cities there's bound to be some annoying subhumans, though they're usually harmless. Is it perfect? No, but if you're a poorfag it's still better than having to waste your money on a shitbox. Also, as the country is much more densely populated than the US, we'd need to build lots of huge highways into what nature we still have.
I don't think mutts and euros will ever see eye to eye on this, don't get why either one gets so triggered over others doing it differently. To each his own I'd say. This issue seems to me more of a symptom of american society decaying, mentally ill homeless drug addicts, violent criminals and whatnot. If our society were like that, I wouldn't ride transit either.
