unfortunately, it's too late to implement your model of growth. I would have been on board back in the 40's before we started with the following decades of mega-sprawl.

But to privatize everything now would simply result in zero investment in transit, cycling or pedestrian amenities since the damage has already been done - sprawl reigns supreme.

Hence, the reason we advocate for a balanced system here on RTH. Your last couple posts have some great points and would have worked if implemented from the start.

Instead, our genius leaders allowed oil companies to buy and destroy transit systems, we subsidized their model of development for decades and are now paying for it.

Balanced transportation systems are needed now. The past can't be undone, but the future can be done properly.
