Why does America have such terrible public t***sit?

I remember seeing a map of Toronto vs Charlotte NC recently, and it was vastly different. It looked like you could go anywhere in Toronto by mass t***sport but not in Charlotte. I also saw a YouTube video on how Boston's mass t***sit fell apart, too. One of the problems is that the suburbs are designed for cars, not for walking home after being dropped off at a stop. Urban sprawl adds to having a problem, as you have to have a car or else not having access to goods and services.

You identified the problem. I can just picture you and bags of groceries trying to get on mass t***sit to ride home with all the other shoppers. How long a walk will it be to your home once you are dropped off? You know the ice cream is going to melt. Yet this is not the real problem. The real situation is not a problem. The real situation is that Americans demand the freedom to travel in their f****l f**led vehicles and a dictatorial Federal L*****t Government wants to put a leash and collar on us. They're failing and they deserve to fail.

To walk home after buying groceries would be a mile and a half. When our car was being fixed, we used our backpacks to lug them home. The bus stop is about a mile away, up a hill. It will bring you to a mall and a hospital about 10 miles away, and down a commercial street. The train station is probably 3 miles away. I think this is typical of most people in suburbs.
