      Elias Borregaard Correct me if I am wrong but isn't the population difference between Copenhagen and New York about 7 Million People wide? It is no surprise that your Capital has a functioning infrastructure, if it is not as big as the cities and capitals of bigger countries.

    • @davidstorrs
      @davidstorrs Před 6 lety +7

      In fairness, your system needs to cover about 10% of NYC's land area (~88 km^2 vs ~789 km^2) and serve about 6% of NYC's population (~500k vs ~8M). Then again, I don't know what your total budget is -- NYC's budget in 2017 was $82B USD but a quick google didn't find Copenhagen's.
      Quibbling aside, everything I know about Copenhagen says that it's a beautiful and very pleasant city, and you guys certainly have us beat on universal health care, free education, and a lot of other things. I hope I can make it there some day.

    • @MrJimheeren
      @MrJimheeren Před 6 lety

      Elias Borregaard you can’t compare Copenhagen to New York. Copenhagen has what 2, 3 lines NYC has 27 and they are much older. Also republican fuckfaces like Giuliani and Bloomberg seriously underfunded the subway for over a decade which all will cost money to undo years of neglect

    Hey, those extra 200 construction workers have an important job! They've gotta wait around for women to walk by and catcall them. Gotta keep that NY Construction Worker image up. =P

    • @tetyoonlee4373
      @tetyoonlee4373 Před 6 lety +5

      It doesn't seem to me these 200 construction workers account that much for the extreme costs in the US. I mean if you're spending $10 billion, even if you're paying them $40 an hour for 50 hours a week, that's still only $20,800,000 a year for 200 workers. Even if we triple that for insurance etc, that's still about $60 million a year. So even for a 10 year project it's still only $600 million. Sure a lot of money to waste, but it's only a small percentage of the project. How many more unnecessary workers are being hired? Or is it that you're hiring consultants who's salaries are more in the range of $1 million + per year than construction workers?

    Yes, in some ways the jobs were over man-powered but they would rather keep ten guys working than bring in a piece of equipment. Besides two hundred extra people on the payroll is nothing compared to giving $50 million to a creepy politician!

    That sounds like a load of shit to me: 200workers x $40,000/worker =/= 10 billion dollars. Simple math folks. It's not the labor.

    Being in DC, I love when New Yorkers b**ch about their subway...please visit DC: the metro is far more exciting. You will have to avoid death by smoke in the tunnels, 4 hour delays, and the heaters that are on during the summer and off in the winter.

      Oh, forgot to mention that New York may hire people to do nothing, but dc hired people to install high voltage wiring with no real training or background....zap
