    True, there are a lot of things that could definitely be better in China. My bet on the reason why they have train tickets is that the strategy for China’s rapid development currently is to emulate rich capitalist countries. Authorities in charge probably thought that if most rich countries have paid public transportation then they must have too. I am confident that eventually, people will get involved and pass complete free transportation through legislation.

      I doubt that’s it, I feel like it’ll be free once it’s highly developed and abundant. Right now, it’s still limited and still developing, I can understand why people still have to pay if that’s the case. The best they can do is try to make it as cheap as possible.
