    My city started a program using taxes to pay for half the bus fares of citizens

    So I looked things up.

    Going to the nearest grocery store:

    35 minutes walk 15 minutes bike ride 6 minutes car trip 90 minutes bus ride somehow

      Yup. Takes forever. If busses didn’t exist in traffic, having their own dedicated lanes… well, then we would have a light rail.
