      Hey, that's in my city (Stuttgart).

      People mostly come to games by train, bus or tram (there's a special "matchday tram line" operating each matchday that brings you right in front of the stadium).

      If you look at the building in the top right corner, that's a parking garage for those few who do drive to the matches with their cars.
      There's also the VIP parking lot (surrounded by the football fields).

      Never had any problems getting to matches there tbh

        Public transportation in USA gets ruined by shitskins, majority of time its Black folks, it's why they don't put any time, money, or effort into it. Even the politicians know this and will just make false promises or not even touch the topic. It costs to much for majority of visitors to not utilize.

            The shortest path between two points is a straight line, which is why I prefer cars to public transportation. Universal healthcare I could take or leave. It would probably be more expensive for me at my income ($115,000) and would have reduced choice and longer wait times. On the other hand, it would be better for the proles and that’s nice.

            Commuting and biking are faster in so many scenarios. Not having to maintain a car, not to pay for it, not to park it, not to care about at all it is priceless.

            A decent healthcare is $10,000/year, whether your jobs pays it is irrelevant because it's regarded as benefits. All this money to companies whose only goal is to make profit out of you. You prefer to pay a fraction of this price through taxes, have an ultimate healthcare, not caring about people fricking you up the ass out of your health, and not filing countless paperwork about it.

            Really just in inner cities during rush hour. Bikes are very slow after all. And i grew out of wanting to live in an inner city. My commute would be at least an hour on a bike instead of 25 minutes in a car.

            Mine is good for $5,000, and I anticipate the tax increase to get “free” healthcare would be higher than $5,000, so it would be more for me, which longer wait times and less choice. I still might possibly prefer it because you’re absolutely right about the paperwork. And it’s better for the proles as I said earlier.

        These kinds of stadiums should have better public transit to them but a complex light rail system in the US doesn’t make sense unfortunately. It’s not about how we have so many roads either, US cities in general are just so spread out that you won’t be servicing a ton of people and the train won’t be taking them very close to where they work. You’d be operating at a loss for decades.

            It's largely the same network, dumbshit. However with the advent of the car populations diffused away from railway nodes and there are extremely few places where long distance passenger rail is profitable or even sensible to heavily subsidize.

            We're not talking about municip-level transit dipshit. The entire point I made originally is that at a macro level multi-metro train doesn't makes much sense in most places in the U.S. because the population is so diffuse.

          reminder: after the emancipation proclamation, border states (and counties that were usurped by the Union) weren't required to give up their slaves; also, since the CSA didn't care what Lincoln had to say, it also didn't apply to them. The only thing the EP changed was that slaves from those southern states caught in the north weren't required to be sent back to their owners (as had been happening for the first 2 years of the war).

    US stadiums were built after the cities were built up, so they mostly ended up getting pushed out to the edges of cities or even the suburbs. Gillette is 28 miles from Boston. The conveniently accessible and not parking-choked stadiums are the old historic ones like Fenway that are at least somewhat integrated into a neighborhood. Also, US city planning generally sucks ass and is corrupt so no one even tries to build stadiums in good locations anymore.

          That's because the people who need leftism are the most numerous, and if they're happy, by default they become the happiest in the country.

          Now ask yourself where all that money comes from.

          Even in the Netherlands, where I have to pay taxes out the ass for our healthcare system, I don't even get to use it before I have to spend 500 minimum myself, which in many cases pays for the stuff anyway.

          I might as well not pay the insurance which is at the cheapest 110 euros a month, coming up to 1200 a year. If I didn't pay the insurance, I would have been able to get 1200 worth of healthcare on top of the 500 I normally have to pay out of my own pocket for anyway.

          It's not as rose coloured as you think. Just because we're 'making sure the people who need healthcare' doesn't mean it's a disgusting perspective we're enabling. I don't want *anyone's* money to be taken away, let alone *not* get anything in return.

          Yeah sure, it works if you have big spending like a cancer treatment or whatever, but for the people who don't, you're just throwing away money for nothing.

        the above ground area could have an outdoor park feel with charcoal grills and other activities. It could be more like a fair environment. You could still have the tailgating experience

          Sounds nice but it would be harder to move all that equipment up there. Not unprecedented though, that’s how many college football fans do it (away from the actual car).

        For Philly it chooses city hall. I think generally it's either city hall or the rough geographic center of the city.

            Except we don't just pretend. We actually DO provide a safety net to make sure that even our poorest aren't forced to live a life of excessive misery. Nobody in this country will go bankrupt from medical bills after a cancer diagnosis. Nobody will have to remortgage their home after major surgery. Not. One. Person. The same can't be said for your dystopian shithole.

            Even then that suburb looks like it's isolated from any stores or businesses. If there was at least a store in the vicinity and only a short drive away from a commercial district it'd be far better.

            This one at least looks nicer than some of the worst offenders in the West that have practically the same house design spread out for miles. And at least this one has a bunch of trees.

            the worst offenders are just hellscape new developments which would hopefully look like that in a couple of decades once trees are given time to grow. im sure a lot of the older neighbourhoods like picrel looked similar just after they were built. they all have similar house design, thats been standard since after WW2
