The only times I see people like me, who prefer owning a car "shouting down" people adcovating for better public transport, is when people suggest I should get rid of my car and ride a bus instead. A good public transportation system is a net-good for everyone, and in no way inconveniences me especially if I never even use it. It's not busses and trains I have an issue with - it's the naive city dwellers who thinks that because they get around just fine without a car then anyone would.

Thanks for providing an example of the type of person I'm talking about. You sound just like their self-centered asses! Good satire.

Why even bother responding to me if, instead of addressing what exactly you take issue with in my statement, you just immediately resort to insults?
