      No, you walk 10 minutes to the bus stop, then wait 20 minutes for the bus to come, then an hour for it to go around to the other stops and get to your destination, then work 8 hours, then oops, buses don’t run as much after 5, so now you wait 50 minutes for the bus because it comes hourly and you get off at 5, then ride another 30 minutes, then walk back in 15 (because you are slower and tired.)

      Or drive your car each way 15 minutes.

        my work is an hour away, used to be two hours one way.

        I live in a rural area that doesn’t have public transit infrastructure. the closest bus stop is an hour away.

        did you actually try to solve the problem or are you just parroting someone else’s opinion?

          I was saying that even being close to work, mass transit is a huge time investment.
