BART is nowhere as convenient as the NYC Metro, for example.

My impression is that it is not a matter of cost. People would rather spend on SUVs and complain about high gas prices (and global warming) than pay the same amount in taxes so that a reliable public transportation system is built.

Effenciency and waste involved in the building process are a different issue altogether (wrt the Big Dig).
