As an American with a lot of experience with this exact problem, it really depends on what city in the US you live in. Some places hate pedestrians like they are Satan’s ass cancer, and some places it’s so common no one even notices. It all depends on the city’s involvement with infrastructure.
I’m not sure that God himself has any money. All the pastors and religious preachers kept Gods money for themselves.
No worries,mobility will tickle down eventually
Ghostface Kafka is an awesome username.
Similar thing happened to German telecommunication infrastructure (for an industry nation our internet is notoriously bad in compatison to EU neighbours), happened to our public transport infrastructure, especially to our trains, and is currently happening to our hospitals.
Privatizing critical infrastructure has never been a good idea.
