Your Dad's A Republican And You Need To Borrow His Truck?

[lunasun]

36. walk, bike ride or city bus...I did not have a car until 25

when it was required by my job.
My family did not have any car -if they couldn't walk it was the bus or subway always or a bike

It is not crazy or impossible

I know many people who are over 40 and do not have a car-

in some cities it is a curse not a benefit
I am not commenting on the global warming snark -just the fact that so many think you cant get around without a car

That is why I do not believe high speed rail dollars will be well accepted or become ways of transit for most in this country like it has in many other places of the world. It will be a dud
Most Americans will never leave their car for a train . Not here; maybe when they visit Europe for a lark they would try one but not here.
Mass transit is not in the minds of most even though more and more are in metro areas ( I understand the rural argument)
