President Joe Biden is taking fresh steps to help keep gas prices from climbing. For Republicans to see this as “disgusting” and “disgraceful” is bizarre.

Not much can be done if what most people can afford is a 15+ years old used car.
Also what I’ve seen from dedicated bus lanes in my city is them just being used by cars and bikes as overtake lane or as a sidewalk extention from pedestrians. Also trains need to be much more than once an hour or worse.
Cost is a factor for sure… that is where the government can step in. Mandate more affordable vehicles. In the Netherlands the subsidies on new EVs where now limited to 50k sticker price set to be reduced again. To guide the market.
And buslanes should just be more intensively used then… but it starts by showing that public transport is a viable alternative.
Train infra in the US is just hub and spoke… the interconnects are missing between the suburbs.
