San Francisco turned a beach road into a park. Drivers are not happy. On November 3rd, voters will decide whether or not the road should be reopened to cars (cdn.imgchest.com)

Add public transit? BART is going broke because no one wants to ride the public transit they already have. They'll be shutting down stations unless their new sales tax passes.

    Public transit shouldn't be expected to turn a profit or even break even. We don't expect public schools, highways, or fire departments to break even. Why should BART? It's a public service.

    The cars in my area are constantly full during the day, it's hard to even board after 0730.
