You can't just massively pay for something with public funds. People would start to lose sight of all of its externalities and believe they were entitled to it, and it would become so dominant that cities might be redesigned around it, even if it were bad. And worse, at that point, it would be nearly politically impossible to ever try to undo the mistake

agreed, but delete the :twisted: poo poo. Just normalize transit being free and threaten to execute the means tester's that try to legislate "skin in the game."

Lmao at car drivers hating cyclists. I own four cars from sedans to off-road suvs to one ton diesel bro trucks and I still ride my bike to work every day because it turns out your cars last longer when you don't demolish them with short stop and go trips every day.

People that claim to hate cyclists are just too presidential for life.

it's honestly disheartening to see how the US used to have nice dense cities with trees and trams and so on, and then look at the blighted hellscape of cracked asphalt highways that it is today

the dumb pseudoleft populist take is that we cant get rid of cars or do anything like that because poor people need to drive to work, but it turns out that de facto requiring car ownership is an enormous financial burden. the poorest income quintile spends close to 30% of its money on transportation!
