Um...no. I am conservative and even deep down inside I have no problem with mass/public transit.

I don't think he was addressing you specifically, but conservatives generally.

And, BTW, do you have a theory about why the government does not subsidize bus companies? Many more people would use them if they were upgraded and ran more frequently.

It’s not the mass/public transit that is the problem,

but being forced into it that is the problem.

I have no problem with public transportation as long as the people that are using it, and ONLY the people that are using it are the ones paying for it. I DO have a problem with public transportation when my stolen tax money is used to subsidize it.

I don’t have a problem with mass transit when it is being used. I live near Green Bay and when I see the buses going down the road with one or two people riding in them, it is obviuosly a waste of money.

I have a problem with government-run public transportation. Ever rode on SEPTA in the Philly area? Ugh. Amtrak ruined, RUINED train travel. There is no reason these can't be privatized.

I think it is just fine for the sheep who live in downtown areas and vote doe commie dems. I just want them to pay their own way. But there is the rub. I don't know anywhere where the users fund it. It is funded by largely by those who don't use it.
