Would be interested in a link to some of the studies. Public transportation, not mass transportation, usually is not used by those in the middle and upper income tax brackets. In the case of BART it is used by "all" economic groups and that is what makes it "work" better than other mass transit projects. Too bad that subjects like Social Security, abortion and missile defense tend to be supported or rejected based on political affiliation rather than on a discussion of the issues involved in each topic. BART might work, but that does not mean that many other mass transit projects are not ill conceived boondoggles where the poor end up subsidizing the rich. BTW I am not saying that you are not willing to discuss the issues. I think you have seen studies demonstrating exactly what you say and am just asking for a link.
