No mention of the Subway expansion during that time?

I had trouble finding numbers, so please correct me if I’m wrong, but the subway went from around 200km to 900km and from a handful of lines to 30 lines since 2008.

Ya, the article mentions shutting down factories and coal plants, etc., but it didn’t say anything about the massive subway expansion, which must be getting a lot of cars off of the road.

Yeah but EVs means we can use the same profit making capitalist system. Trains and subways don’t turn as much profit. And it’s a socialist mode of transportation. /s
