Regrettably, much of US policy is based on what will make big business
rich.  Thus, public policy has, for 50 years or so, been directed such
that it's harder and harder to get by without a car, much to the benefit
of automobile and oil companies, and arguably to the detriment of the
public.  Maybe public transportation isn't the answer for everyone, but
it's not really an option for those who might want to make use of it.

In this fine "democracy", it's not "one man one vote", but "one dollar
one vote".
