Absolutely.

I personally feel that you can push people to public transit via 2 methods.

  1. You make non public transit transportation very expensive

  2. You make public transportation actually better than driving yourself.

Option 1,you'll have resistance all the way, plus it kind of sucks that in 2023, for all the effort the working class has made we're being asked to pack in while the rich will continue to use personal transportation. They'll get all the benefits while we are making the sacrifice.

Option 2, would be the best because you tax the rich HARD to build public transport with private compartments. Push the cost to the rich and reward the working class, not the other way around.
