No, this is all about destroying the middle class - the poor will get mass-transit subsidies and the rich (I'm talking about the elitist rich like celebrities and liberal politicians, not the hard-working rich) will still have their private jets and limos and won't be affected by this crap.

All Republicans should be screaming bloody murder over this and taking to the airwaves.

This is designed to destroy those evil rural red states!

For my next car I’m going to buy a used city bus. I’ll then be able to run red lights, drive in the carpool lanes, and break traffic laws, and never get a ticket. Have you ever seen a public city bus pulled over for the crap they pull? And talk about comfort, I’ll fix it up inside, put in a jacuzzi, barbecue grill, kitchen, bedroom, smokers lounge, and run a bowling lane down the middle. In accidents a city bus beats a SUV. A bus is really the ultimate SUV, not just for poor people anymore.

His end game is to get as many as possible from rural and suburban locations to live in the city, so mass transit can be used and ‘improve’ the energy efficiency by stopping the use of personal transportation.

Cities are where people can be controled much easier, in ways other than transportation, too.
