But why would you want to go anywhere that public transportation doesn't take you? You're only supposed to go where you are allowed to go. Who do you think you are to desire something more than the common weal? If enough voters demand it and legislation mandates it, you will only be able to go where you are permitted to go: only by public transportation, not by independent means. And then you can walk the rest of the way, maybe. If the weather is bad you can take the bus back home. If it's running.

I am reminded of the old Beatles song, Get Back:
