Adron on The current

Adron on The current prices are starting to, along with regular growth, to significantly increase transit usage and curtail auto/combustion fuel usage anyway.

Market demand is so cool. :)
JK: I am constantly amazed by how little Portland’s liberals care about low income people. The low income are the first to be hurt by rising fuel prices, yet you wish for that.

Do you even realize that what you wish for will use MORE NOT LESS energy compared with a policy to get people into SMALL cars? See: DebunkingPortland.com/Transit/BusVsCarTEDB.htm

Small cars are also far less costly than transit. See: DebunkingPortland.com/Transit/Cost-Cars-Transit(2005).htm

Cars also improve low income people’s standard of living by allowing a freedom of travel that transit simply cannot provide. That freedom translates into the probability of finding a higher paying job within the MUCH WIDER job market reachable in a given commute time.

But Portland liberals never seem to care about the people their schemes hurt.

Thanks
JK
