Public transportation works well with high density populations. Other places it just soaks up tax dollars.
You know what soaks up tax dollars? SUBURBAN HIGHWAYS. Why do you think that so many new roads are toll roads? Because gasoline and other motor taxes can’t cover the cost of all the shiny new highways that the suburbanites demand in their vain attempt to flee from reality.
Well, too bad. From now on those who want to live in suburban la-la land get to pay tolls to drive on those nice, new freeways — and I’m glad. It’s about time people had to pay up front for the infrastructure required to live in Fantasyland.
