But, doesn't this statement show up the problems of public transportation. England, even with a robust public transportation system and high gas prices still lost out to the supposed convenience of the car Harry, There are many things we prefer...like demerol or alcohol or pasta but they are not always desirable or beneficial in the long run. Besides, why do we have to do everything in excess....why can't the station wagon do the job instead of an SUV that gets 4 miles to the pint? I suspect if all the SUV's were replaced tomorrow with station wagons, the gas savings would be huge. Furthermore when public transportation is permitted to decay, the groups that suffer initially and the most are the poor, college students, teenagers etc. These are the groups that can least afford it. Eventually, we all suffer from worsening air quality, deteriorating neighborhoods which have been divided in half by new freeways, serious traffic congestion, higher taxes etc. We pay such a huge price and then we have the added bonus of depleting a natural resource. In this matter we are like indulgent children. ted
