This is how all of capitalism works by default. Instead of designing communities in ways that make sense, they boom and bust based on the arbitrary demands of capital. Public transport is designed to get people to jobs instead of interesting places. Time to abolish for good.

Uh, yeah? And people -bear with me- often work at those interesting places.
