Of all things America sucks at, the NYC subway is not the thing to attack. Fuck cars

The issue isn't the presence of a subway system, but rather the need for more funding, care and attention.

Agreed. We are lucky to have that. Also I'm pretty sure that the photos were chosen to show off the worse of the US subway system in NYC. I remember riding it once and thought it was pretty clean.

I guarantee that someone could do the same for the other subway systems if they should choose too.
