Well Brian, I have to thank you as you certainly go a long way to prove my point: they’ll come up with a way to regulate you and take more of your freedom away. In this case, Brian goes for regulating how and where you live.
Me, I see other people thinking they know better how people should live and coercing people to fit that vision and forcing other people to pay for it as oppression. Clearly there are many people who are willing to get in line to be fitted for their bit and bridle.
On the other hand, if people chose to freely live in high-density urban areas where mass transportation can generate enough business at a rate that pays for itself then I am certainly all for it. That shows the people, in general, really are all for it.
I remember reading once that much of San Diego’s light rail system is so underutilized it would be cheaper to run busses.
