How Rising Gas Prices Are Eroding the American Dream
- iqster 16y agoThe title sucks but the article describes some very real problems. In the places I've lived in the US, public transit is a bad joke. I'm originally from T.O. and didn't appreciate the TTC while I was there. It has problems (especially if you have to take the bus rather than the train) but it is far cleaner and better run than the transit systems of the Bay Area and NY. In most parts of the US, it seems public transit is for the poor souls who can't afford a car. NYC is one exception to this though ... upper-middle-class and poor have to deal with the same funk of the subway.
