Where I recently moved to, everything is a 10-20 min drive away, but buses can be over an hour because how poorly they’re done. Apparently they used to be quite bad, but recent changes made them awful and no one understands how the new routes and timetables managed to be approved and implemented.
In most cases, someone opposed to public transportation finds a way into a position of authority and makes the routes worse with stupid justifications, then gets it killed because nobody uses it.

Conspiracy theory.
Conservatives running public services into the ground is an actual conspiracy, not a conspiracy theory.
