Maybe we have to simply admit the unspoken truth that nobody wants to hear but everyone knows deep-down is true. The Chinese and Asians in general (East and South) are simply more intelligent and have better genes than everyone else...
How is this any different than building a subway that goes under cars?
The bus can theoretically deal with with congested traffic in a way not requiring huge confiscation of the taxpayer's money.
Take, for example, Boston's The Big Dig: The project was estimated in 1985 at $2.8 billion. By the time it was done, it had racked up $15 billion in costs and another $7 billion in interest charges, for a total of $22 billion that won't be paid off until 2038.
