That's pure paranoia. You're assuming that pay-as-you-go funding can't replace the rob-Peter-to-pay-Paul fundng your types find so appealing. How about we actually try this novel concept of making users of mass transit pay for it instead of non-users?
Also, you conveniently forgot about the private freight railroads and their grade crossings ...... typical.
And for all you extremists on both sides of this one particular incident, how about we wait for the investigative summary before jumping to conclusions or engaging in Alinsky smear tactics? Okay?
