  I'm spending over $500 per year so somebody can get to ride the bus.....
Typical short-sighted attitude. It's waaaay more complicated. So, let's save you $500 and do away with public transit. What if all the people riding the bus or using other transportation started driving? Where would they park? How much would it cost to build and maintain the infrastructure to accommodate? There is no way you can build yourself out of auto gridlock. They will come. Some of the Walmart workers don't have cars and lose their jobs. So we not only pay their medical insurance and food stamps as we are now doing but they go on full Medicaid, etc. etc.

Ag, your $500 is a bargain and an investment.
