| Comment | Feeling that you have to own a car because infrastructure doesn’t allow for speedy (or safe) bus, rail or bike transit isn’t too far from being a “tax” on the poor as it is. The idea of AI controlled mass transit, who knows, but it’s a separate idea and probably so far away than should we just sit and do nothing in the meantime with a system that isn’t fit for purpose, pollutes, and punishes the poor by making taking the bus or cycling more unpleasant than it could be? Buses subsided by gov paid for by general taxation sounds a hell of a lot fairer than mass individual car use which means the poor suffer the brunt of payments more. |
