They really want us to love cars. But why would we love being car dependent?

Dependency is never freedom. Mobility freedom comes from mobility choices.

    I actually looked into public transportation because of this thread. My city operates a bus service, but doesn’t come to my part of town. I don’t live in a bad part of town. They just… don’t come this way. I’d have to walk something like 3 miles to get to the nearest bus station.

    I feel like they did the bare minimum to say they did something, maybe for tax purposes?

    I’m not too mad. I have a car. But now I know not having one is less of an option (and the bus doesn’t get within 30 miles of my job, so yeah, I need my car to get to work).
