Eh, if they go up too high, the economy will slow down again and prices will drop once more.
Now as for all the dumb american's against the Tar Sands, I hope it feels good up the ass.
Americans don't have a say in the way Canadians are destroying the world's environment with tar sand mining. That's all on you guys.

mass transit sucks and if you like it/ride it, you're poor and you suck
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...
Please ride the bus in Miami and then tell me how awesome it felt. If possible, try to catch it around 11pm, and take a route where you have to wait at the downtown terminal for 15 minutes or so.
Yeah. If you survive the experience, then we'll talk about the current state of mass transit in the US.

Was mostly saying this is the mindset. If the buses were full of business people and normal useful human beings going about their days getting to and from work, things would change, and it wouldn't be the horror that is currently mass transportation in most places in North America. I agree with you man, I won't take the bus either, even in tame London, Ontario. Hell, I have a bus pass included in my tuition, yet I'm still stupid and waste the $75 a month for special snowflake parking. The simple fact of the matter is that it is impossible for me to get home in time after my classes to pick up my kids at their school bus stop if I use public transportation.
If I lived in London England, I wouldn't have a car, and I would be perfectly fine taking the buses, trains and subway there.

Yea, that's the thing in Europe - it's much more well-developed, and far more people take it, forcing the undesirables to stay in Hull or something.
