You had to wait for a car but it’s not like in the US where a car is a mandatory (and incredibly expensive) requirement to live

In capitalist Singapore right now there is a $10,000 tax on owning a car and not many people do for this reason (on the grounds that Singapore's infrastructure couldn't work if it had to accomodate everyone in the city having a car)

That seems cool and good if people can work without a car anyway

Yeah from what the guy was telling me they have pretty extensive public transport. Land there is just too expensive to waste on car parks

But they have some of the most exceptional public transportation I have ever seen and I have been all over the world. That's a completely reasonable tax as you really don't need a car there and is a small city state.
