Who /loves public transportation/ here? I recently moved to a city that has a decent bus system...

From Texas and was on vacation in Seattle. It was bretty good, no idea why everyone online complains about how horrible their transportation system is, without a car you can get anywhere you want from the airport to the northern most parts of the city. If you ever come to DFW you can't get shit without taking an uber or renting a car. I'd take a sucky bus system and nice bike lanes over having to deal with monthly payments + oil changes + gas + the agony of driving everywhere, especially in a state where 90% of vehicles are pick up trucks looking to run everyone else off the road.

If the ticket price is included in the semester fees then it's not free

You know what I mean. Semester fee is like 250€ and you can study, eat cheap (2€ for a good meal that fills you) and have access to all public transport for it.

I live in a tiny town in Iowa, and for some weird ass reason we used to have a trolly, which was declared illegal by the city council I shit you not.

Wew here it's around €2500
I love my country :)

America is a sad place

It's great and should be in every area. I own a car but still get the bus everyday to work cause it's cheaper due to missing tolls and parking.

Although however good it is I still hate getting buses. I just fucking wish we had a train station near me. Buses just make me feel ill most of the time which is not fun.

To say the least

public transport is literally just privatized state subsidized porky taxi service for poor people

enjoy paying for your ticket

The thought of driving gives me anxiety so I haven't learned. How fucked is a person in a capitalist society if one can't drive?
