  • I’ve visited Switzerland and was very impressed by their infrastructure, not just their public transit but what they built way up in the mountains. Lots of little things like dams, waterwheels, gondolas, little railways to small towns. Amazing stuff you’d never see in the United States

    I’ve been to Korea multiple times and every time I come back I dislike the US a bit more. From what I could see, the quality of everything, from food products to infrastructure to safety to interpersonal interactions with strangers, was better in Korea. Oh did I mention healthcare, dental, and vision? I don’t have insurance there but all are super affordable and very fast.

    The US is inferior in nearly every way and I don’t understand why Americans are okay with that. Even our food is largely bad for consumption, like what the hell is wrong with us?


  • I just got back from Korea and they’ve also installed a ton of EV chargers since my last visit. Two years ago I didn’t see a single one, now they have at least 6 level three chargers in every large commercial parking structure and apartment complexes have 6 to 8 level two chargers in their local lot. I was told their government made the chargers a requirement and no parking lot was grandfathered in.

    It was pretty cool, they have more than enough chargers for now, but they’ll need more.
