Tons of cars/traffic on the road. Man that place is the definition of urban sprawl - and poor engineering.
Zillions of cars, lanes, and it took light years to get anywhere.
Actually, it's perfectly engineered to extract forced labor out of us. You're forced to buy a car to have a job, forced to buy gas, forced to burn a lot of gas sitting there, forced to pay construction companies for gigantic unnecessary highway infrastructure via taxes, and on and on.
It's perfect! (If you're in the 0.1% and trying to redistribute money from the middle class up to yourself.)

Someone is getting ripped off here.
These scumbags are manipulating the markets to enrich themselves at the expense of everyone else. The economy is slow, jobs are hard to come by, many people are hurting, and now this.
Jail the bastards.
