If you've seen what they have done with cars you probably aren't optimistic about what's going to happen when they take those away.

- SketchySeaBeast 3y agoI don't think anyone is arguing that the cars should be taken away - well, OK, someone probably is, but there's someone arguing everything on the internet - it's more about having options where losing your car doesn't stop someone from getting to work so that they can pay off the debt that is keeping them from using their car.
- willcipriano 3y agoThe government is draconian with cars. They use car ownership as a tool to turn the screws on poor people. Now step into the shoes of that poor person, who has had the screws turned on them. Whould you give up your car and trust the government? That's why they don't trust public transit, they don't trust the government and rightly so.
- foxyv 3y agoPoor people don't use public transit because it has been dismantled to the point it's unusable. In fact, it has been demolished explicitly because poor people use it.
- vuln 3y agoPeople don’t use public transportation because there is people with mental issues on them causing fights, teenagers causing fight, addicts causing a ruckus. Public transportation isn’t safe for a majority of the population
- foxyv 3y agoI have yet to have a single issue with public transportation. In addition, all the people fighting on public transit aren't crashing into each other in multi-ton vehicles. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9JgukjFWlcc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9JgukjFWlcc https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/URLs_Cited/OT2021/20-843/20-843-15.pdf https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/URLs_Cited/OT2021/20-8...
- foxyv 3y agoWhy would we take away the cars? People will still need them for lots of things. But making a country where people HAVE to drive them is terrible.
