Reply #12: Because for right now, that won't help keep millions on the job [View All]

For me, this isn't a way to help executives. It's to help keep all the people working in the auto industry on the job.

I'm not against light rail, though. A line is being built with stations that will be 1 1/2 miles from our home. But that rail won't get me to the grocery store and to medical appointments. I'm retired, have some health issues and I need a vehicle to get around. Nope, a bike won't do and I can't walk the distance. But I have gotten my fuel consumption down to under 200 gallons of fuel a year. Not too shabby an effort but easy because I combine trips every time I go out and I say "no" to myself very often. I refuse to give in to the lure of impulse driving.
