    If you live somewhere, you’re a part of the body that decides things like that. If you want public transit in your community, and you certainly should, take the steps to get the action started.

    Nobody is going to change the world on our behalf; it all falls on us.

      Whats one of the concrete steps? I don’t know where you lives but here it seems impossible to push for that.

        Starts by being an active member of the community. Attend counsel meetings, town hearings, etc. Bring up the topic at these, gauge the response. Talk to the people who seem enthusiastic in response. Work together and build a petition, then seek signatures first amongst the people who attend, then talk to your neighbors.

        I never said it was going to be easy, I only said nobody else is going to do it on your behalf.
