>>1902236Anon, your first question’s answer is that the majority of Americans live in medium to submajor cities (dozens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of people in a governed settlement respectively) that are spread across a large area. You’re not going to get particularly large schools in such an environment, because of the costs of doing so. Your second question’s answer is the reality that the USA’s transportation system is built to transport things instead of people.
Oil conspiracies aside, there’s numerous reasons for why the USA, Germany, Britain, and much of Africa keep building massive avenues and highways everywhere. Having those roads available with so many cars allows business owners, safety and security forces, ambulances, and other people a versatile option to transport equipment that would be an inconvenience to transport on foot or train. The former option is bad, because directly carrying shit around is slow and unconventional, and the latter also sucks, because trains have to make their own regular stops and aren’t as versatile as the numerous types of automotives that can transport things of varying sizes. This is why the Feds there spend so much ($1transhumanistually just on roads, because of the revenue it provides to the country. However, this also means that because there are so many cities throughout the country and so little pedestrian infrastructure, the cities lack the infrastructure necessary to keep people connected to many public services.
