This has nothing to do with the consumption of a finite resource, but rather that the dregs are drawn to public transit like flies to shit.

American really are a very weird species.
Even in third world places like Berlin public transport just works, but somehow, the nation that gave us the Burger, the Neutron bomb and Billy Ray Cyrus can't even run something as simple as a public transport system without it magically turning to shit.
Get your fucking act together, your embarrassing yourself!

Tragedy of the commons is not exclusive to finite resources. It is about how lack of ownership leads to the degradation of shared resources. People don't care about cleaning up after themselves on the subway because it isn't their area.

Then you should be really angry at how expensive highways are. $400+ billion every year and they don’t even charge a toll.
I support rail and public transit because it’s more cost-effective than car infrastructure. I hate big government.

Of course it's not perfect, but it's no worse than in other places and it mostly just works. That's like the only thing I like when I'm in Berlin. Just buy a full pass for however long I have to be in that shithole and move around the city quickly, comfortably and safe.

Sorry but no..
I live in Berlin.
Public Transport is a heavy mess for me.
Ok tehy are driving mostly on time but its a standard to now how the armpit of ten strangers smell when you leave.
Thats maybe something that works but its definitly not what I would chose to come from one place to an other.
If I had the option to visit the innercity or drive one hour Autobahn to for example Leipzig Outlet with my car to buy something I would drive to leipzig.

Anyone else love how Covid hysteria and social distancing mandates have killed the anti-human pipedreams of "urban transit planners"? What's even more ironic is the pro-public transit left have been the loudest regarding how necessary it is to social distance. If this virus means the end of dystopian visions of everyone living in a box stacked on top of each other sharing communal spaces and being packed in sardines with no freedom, it will have all been worth it.
