lol I remember how western media was bleating incessantly about the whole ghost cities thing. Then we start seeing these cities populated all of a sudden. My favorite one was the subway line to nowhere they made fun of, that ended up being in a middle of a big city district in the end. This whole thing made me realize that people in the west are now incapable of comprehending the concept of long term planning. Everything is driven by quarterly profits here, something 10 years away is considered to be distant future impossible to plan for. This really highlights the difference between central planning and the market driven clusterfuck that capitalism creates.
Turns out it's a lot easier to build the subway line before you build the city on top of it
who knew right
Planning ahead is a communist plot
