We didn’t add any street lights in the city for 30 years due to budget constraints. U.S. infrastructure is, in a lot of ways, barely functional.

And I’m disinclined to risk my life to try to prove a futile point. Walking very far here is dangerous due to narrow roads, bridges with no sidewalks, etc.

There was once a time when men risked their lives for what they believed in. At least, that is the mantra I repeat when I feel endangered walking through my city.
We live in a democracy! Hope you understand that if you and enough people around you want changes in your neighborhood/community it is totally possible.

Start making changes and influencing people instead of saying its futile. Change is always possible.

Time to move I guess!
