[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had similar thoughts after spending time in Shanghai and Hong Kong in 2019. Felt light years ahead of us - and they've done it all in such a short amount of time. Really changes your perspective [/quote] If you go to the growing parts of this country, where everything is new, it's a shock too. When was JFK built? When were these idyllic Asian airports built? [/quote] Nice excuses. Japan's shinkansen has been running for 50+ years with zero deaths. You can't blame everything on age. The US just blows chunks when it comes to infrastructure and prioritizing spending on works that do the public good. Many other countries continually improve it and properly maintain infrastructure. We waste all of our money on blowing up goatherders. [/quote] Okay. So the idyllic Asian airports are all 50+ years old (or 70+ years old, as JFK is). Thanks for answering. [/quote]
