That's one of the most intelligent things we have, in my opinion. Our federal taxes help with that, incidentally. A large part of the ridership is people of low income, too.<br /><br />Mass transit is the quickest and easiest way to reduce greenhouse gasses and dependence of foreign (and domestic) oil. It would be nice to see it expand even more. By the way, what happened to Mayor Marty's streetcar to nowhere? They were going to tear up Central Avenue and put a streetcar in. <br /><br />They did that in Kenosha, WI, when I lived there. A streetcar that went a few blocks and circled around to where it started. If you were downtown you'd see it now and then, driving around empty. It provided jobs for the drivers, I guess. About three. It cost millions, of course.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
