mass transit sucks and if you like it/ride it, you're poor and you suck
The problem is government is making a lot of Americans poor that should not be thus forcing them to use public transportation
And yet there are a couple people that don't call you a troll.
Admittedly, one is married to you.

And this is another problem with mass transit. Unless you live in a very large city with a subway system (pretty much) buses are seen as poor people transportation. You don't see this stupid mindset in Europe...

Yup, where i grew up we had such excellent public transport that a lot of people (me included) dont bother getting a drivers licence as there is no need.

The problem with buses is they have to go the same roads you do, but make several stops on the way. They're also pricey and most of the people forgot how to bathe.

So by virtue of not being told I'm wrong, I'm right.

Pricey? Back home i pay 8 pounds (about $12.50) for unlimited bus journeys for a week. Failing that it's about a pound a journey, depending on distance etc.

I was riding the bus the other day and a person a few seats away from me was talking about how horrid his bed-bug infection in his apartment was... made me start sitting in the plastic seats and not the ones with any covering.

What the sh*t? Are they gold-plated buses or what?!
(assuming that's a short journey... if its a long journey, then fair enough)
