I think our government should invest more money into our public system because people nowadays are lazy. Why would they want to walk 5 mins to get to the bus stop then wait another 10 mins for the bus to come when they can just walk down the stairs to their garage and drive their car.  Our government should really look into a better transit system which should include a better bus line with more bus stops and more frequent buses. I think that would encourage more people to use transit while the gas prices is really high right now.

I agree with that point. Plus the investment would pay dividends in the future because of a more efficient bus line that is used more. However, how would you convince the government to make the investment?

i would convince the government with the statistics on how much people takes transit everyday and how there's a difference between people taking the public transit and driving their personal vehicle. Another thing i would do is show them in some less populated places how the people has more difficulties accessing the transit system so the people there are forced to drive the car.

That is a very promising proposal. One thing I would also do would be to provide statistics about how regions with better public transport infrastructure are more productive. I know that in the Bay Area, improved public transport would do wonders for the workforce. If you actually make a proposal to the government, please let me know!

It is a great idea to construct better public transportation system to help reduce carbon emissions. We can build sharing electric cars station and sharing bike system to help people get around inside the city. Also I think the government can make policies to encourage people using public transportation or green energy vehicles.
