You are slow. Let me spell this out for you. Public transportation requires OTHERS to pay for the method of transport and gasoline (not to mention those who operate the transportaion, the bureaucracy, etc.). With automobiles, you foot that bill. Road construction costs are a footnote comparatively- in terms of per capita costs. Thus, not only does automobile transport cost taxpayers less than public transportation, the amount of mileage and users dwarfs public transport. Now, I'll give you time to understand a nuanced argument and get your head out of your ass. I've debated to this to my satisfaction.

It's easy to "argue" when you don't have to stick to facts. Where are your numbers? I'm sure whatever you rely upon is complete, unbiased, and leaves nothing out - for example, comparative land costs. Oh, I'm sure all of your numbers also include costs of policing and traffic management as operating costs of the roadways. I'm sure you have it all under consideration, and that your view is informed only by facts and not by your political bent. And probably also informed by your vast experience with public transportation.
