Everything about public transportation!

you see, if the City does that then it's the city's responsibility to maintain, both the infrastructure for transportation and the transportation itself. With cars, they only do infrastructure
car infrastructure is more expensive than public transportation
Sure, but you need some of that car infrastructure for trash collection, deliveries and such. In small towns that double duties for everything at no extra cost. Until you have a good network investments in public transit are bad as so few will ride that it isn't worth having at all - then suddenly you have a good network and people start riding.
I want people to understand that everybody's needs aren't the same as their own (and not just say they do before screaming something that proves they don't).
I don't know if that means you're pro or anti public transit.
Some people act like "I don't want to be around other people" is a "need".
I don't think a society should especially cater to the most anti social members, especially if that hurts most people.

Same same.
Woooo yeahhhh!
Agreed, traffic suck whether it jam or not
During rush hour my city's transit comes every 15 minutes, 7.5 minutes on the shared line. I only used it for commuting. On the weekend I saw the train leaving and didn't worry but had to wait a while 30 minutes. Which sucked.
