PDX. Aside from insulting right-wingers as non-thinkers (that would be me), you're really preaching to a converted choir on this forum.

What needs to be done is convincing the other 95% of Americans that having rail and other mass transit alternatives is both good transportation policy and effective gummint. The trouble is that the successes of our commuter rails and public transit in removing cars off the road and improving the overal traffic situration has only recently been studied by ecoonmetric methods. Anecdotes from the past to now are fine but hard data is only recently being collected. The analysis is certainly supportive of our point of view, but still only an inch wide and and inch deep.

When it gets deeper, then we can sing the tune and it will resonate with taxpayers and taxing authorities.

There's no advantage to treat anti mass transit people with disdain, unless you want to turn them off forever.
