You obviously don't have children in school. The working-class citizens have paid a hefty price for no bussing. Its very difficult for a parent with children in school with no transportation. Transportation is a vital part of education, afterall, children have to GET to school. Personally, I think it should become a part of the safety regulation. I’m sorry Adron, but I beg to differ.

It's kinda silly. But on another note, education is nice, but transportation is vital. Transportation choices that are intelligent (such as electrifying rail lines) help the environment too. The Governer needs to come up with some REAL solutions for the silly school bus paradigm. It is old, it is offensive, and it is ridiculous how much entrenched union costs and support the school busses have. If anything they should utilize public transit along with everyone else. I know there are a million reasons against this but there are even more logical reasons to be rid of the silly school bussing system.
