The Conservative Case for Transit

This article by David Shaengold concisely and convincingly lays out the case for transit from a conservative perspective.

The Republican party has become identified with pro-car, anti transit, anti-city positions that do not flow obviously from any core conservative principles. I agree with Shaengold that it is time to question the assumption that transit = socialist government spending or that roads and highway spending = free market.
