    Are you really saying you want an authoritarian to make the trains run on time?

    Don’t you think that’s a little unoriginal?

      You don’t have to have the authoritarianism, China is simply doing the most cost effective way of providing public transit for as many people as possible.

          How can I implement this in my third world country?

          We truly need something different than the corrupt democracy we have here.

          It’s the government of the people, for the people, by the people, but the people is stupid lazy and easily corrupted
