The problem is lack of trust for local and county government to run public transit. People don't want to lose their job because they depended on poorly run public transit. I've met more than a few people who have lost jobs or were going to lose jobs due to poor transit services. Here in So. Cal, Metrolink trains are expensive and run very rarely. I have yet to go a week without a major delay or cancelled train. Bus and train schedules are essentially one way and leave early. Meaning I usually have to leave work around 3:30 to get home. Not to mention that despite driving through some of the worst traffic in the state, trains and buses take two or three times as long to get me to my destination than my car. This is despite massive funding increases and bonds for public transit in our state.
