Just want to elaborate on the 9th - free public transport.

the local political leadership came up with a genius idea that would make everyone happy.
Not happy, not happy at all. It is bullshit. The neighboring regions have suffered terribly because of this and public transport usage has increased around 5ish percent only. Not to mention people who don't use the transport get to pay for it. If any politician at your place starts to implement this, you go and beat the living shit out of them.

On the other hand, if public transportation for me was free, i would probably leave my car at home.

Not every day though :P

If public transportation in Dallas was free.... all the homeless would be living in the public transportation.

And everyone else would buy a car.

Currently the only homeless on public transport are the ones the cops bought a ticket for and put on there. But they're only there until the end of the line, which gets them out of Dallas and into the suburbs. *sigh* Sad but true. Homeless rate in Dallas down 10%! Homeless rate in Allen, up 30%!

lol. I guess it's one way of distributing the homeless evenly across urban areas :P

(assuming a lot of homeless people in Dallas don't actually NEED to sleep on public transport as the temperatures never get very low)
