public transportation

 I remember someone in class made a comment along the lines of "Anyone seen on a bus over 40 is a failure." I think many people, including myself to some degree, think this way. But we know from an environmental standpoint that people taking the bus should be admired. It doesn't make sense to be judgemental about public transportation anymore. Like Sarah said, I think Americans need an attitude adjustment. I think one thing that needs to change is the status of the car in American society. Having a car/ what type of car you drive shouldn't be a status symbol. Who knows, maybe in the future cars will be a symbol of waste and pollution.
