6. When they no longer need donations from big biz
I can remember using public transportation in the late 50 in Seattle Wa.You could catch an Electric buss to anywhere in the cities for change. And a buss came by every 15 minuets.

In 1969 in National Geographic they did a spread on a mass transportation system that if adopted would have done away with the auto for the most part and Air Travail in on the land at least and would have used only a fraction of the energy we use today.
At the end of the article they seemed to think that this system was inevitable just because it made so much sense and represented a vast improvement in transportation.
How little did they know it is not about what is good for us and the country, but what is good for General Bullmouse.
