Ok, so you consider your experience decades ago riding public transport in Boston to be comparable to modern day Swiss?

I have said no such thing. SInce I have never been in Switzerland I obviously can't compare the two. Can you?

My whole point was that you should try to live in a country with excellent public transport. I have been tried many places, and I would only consider Switzerland to fit that description(maybe Luxembourg, which has fantastic _free_ public transport).

Would you describe Bostons public transport (decades ago) as “excellent”, or are you just being obtuse?

Mind you, most of Europe has pretty good public transport, I wouldn’t call it excellent.

And my whole point is that you have no idea what my preferences are and you should not be presuming to dictate to me what I should do. If you like where you live, great, enjoy it. And let me choose where I like to live and enjoy that.

Get off your high horse. I have already described my experience. I'm not going to describe it again just because you feel like being insulting.
