I live 12 miles from the nearest small town. What good does mass transit do me?
Not surprising, because a large part of the population doesn’t HAVE a true ‘mass transit’ system where they live, or if they have one, it doesn’t go where they need to go.
I have been on a bus. It was scary.
I’d rather walk or beg for a ride.
“74% prefer being stuck in traffic and paying $5 per gallon.”
Yes, yes I do.
Mass Transit - what a money trap in Massachusetts.
Let me tell you ‘bout a man named Charley........
Bernie Goetz did what he did for a darn good reason. Note that he was convicted of illegal possession of a firearm, NOT for shooting the black thugs that were attacking him.
And Epic Beard Man was, indeed, epic.
That's when I'm driving real slow across town. :)
Thanks
I can’t imagine why people don’t want to join the unfortunates who have no alternative but to sit on vomit-soiled seats amongst vagrants, the insane, and the hopeless DUI cases. You might as well go to the local teaching hospital and do petri dish jello shots.
Well isn’t that a silly poll? Not all areas are created equal. God I hate pollsters. I wonder if they have any education sometimes.
It used to also bring maids, sitters and nannies but now it brings mostly beggars and ne'er-do-wells.
He never returned, and his fate is still unlearned.....
I’m sure that the atheists and anti-Christians will come out against mass transit since it exposes them to a religious service. And we can’t have “Mass” anything if we can’t have crosses....now to introduce traffic circles and get rid of those intersections that look like crosses.
The only time I ever use mass transit it when I visit Europe. If had to live in a city as large as London or Paris, I would use it on a daily basis...what would be the alternative, after all? Thankfully, I live in a town with only 0.1% of the population of such metropolises, and am happy to get around in either my Honda Civic hybrid or Jeep Wrangler Unlimited, depending on the weather.
I was on a bus once.
Call me when the trains run on time and we can talk.
I’m surprised that ONLY 74% rarely or never use mass transit.
Woohoo! I finally made the in crowd!
Since I am at least 120 miles from any sort of mass transit it would be hard for me to use it.
