> The sad part is that this thinking gets entrenched in certain populations. People loose idealistic thinking and prefer to stick with the status quo. Even sadder that these certain populations are more likely to vote than those that would stand to benefit from public transport.
The status quo actually works on some level. Idealistic thinking often leads to thinking that big disruptive changes will make things better when there are always vastly more ways to make things worse than better. Idealistic thinking is far from an unalloyed good.
