Gas Prices
When my mom, sister, and I visit New York City, to see a show, there are people who ride the buses.
I don't know what they pay. I live in Florida where they are cutting out school buses. Dud to the gases prices. Now imagine you are a little six year and you have walk two miles carring a twenty pound back pack to school.

How Are we Going To Pay For It.

Now your saying we can fine money for public transportation, but we can't fine it to keep the school buses running. I would even be for a card that lets people who take it all the time to have a discount, but generally the answer is no. If any body should get to take it for free it should be wounded veterans Ok maybe people take all the time might pay a little extra for their card or maybe everyone else might have to chip in extra dollar I don't know, and we should all be willing to do it gladly.

Public Transportation Is Not always Available

If public transportation was available in more areas I am sure more people would take it. The trouble is that some place don't have buses so it not available. I would be all for business and asking people if we had a company bus would you take it. So who would take it the handicap, elderly, those who are not in good health, and those who just plain choose not to drive. A little out of everyones pay check who takes it will go to help pay for company transportation.

Considering Everything that it Coast.

Will you have to pay for insurance which they charge through the roof, The driver needs to get paid.
Some people are taking it. What they need to do is make it more available so people would take it. Do you people take the buses to Atlantic City. You buy a round trip ticket for twenty six dollars. I have a feeling in the long run it could be cheaper. We can't make it free for everybody with out raising taxes so I would say no.

Conventions

Also if people could take the buses to the grocery story drug story, where ever they want to go. I am sure more people would take it. Would you take it if it was available. I think some times I would if I had some place to go. I am lucky where I have mom who drives me to work. I never be driving and I live where we don't have any public transportation I would gladly pay my own way.
