What Does This Mean?

cmoneyspinner @cmoneyspinner (9218) • Austin, Texas 9 Oct 18

Yep. Me again talking about childhood memories and dreams. My mom and dad never owned a car. If we wanted to go anywhere we relied on transportation provided by family and friends, a taxi cab, or the public bus. I've been...

2018 will likely have the most expensive summer driving season in years -- filling up the tank will cost 14% more than last summer. As if prices were not high enough.. And so much difference from state to state due to taxes. maybe...

Thoughts On Children Riding Public Transportation

danishcanadian @danishcanadian (28954) • Canada 17 Mar 18

This morning I saw a very disturbing story on HLN, in which a family was kicked off of a flight, because their toddler was fussy, and someone nearby was bothered by it. At this time I'm unable to remember the airline, but at this...

Do any of you have to take public transportation anywhere? If so, what do you think about it? My boyfriend and I have a car, but it is a manual so I can't drive it. He's been trying to teach me, but I get too nervous. Anyway,...

I like to drive and take public transportation. Driving is more convenient and can get you most places on land but you have to worry about parking and it is more expensive. Public transportation goes to many places and is cheaper...

Have you tried eating your food inside a public transportation?

Bhem @JustBhem (70555) • Davao, Philippines 1 Sep 16

I don't mind eating inside a jeepney. I sometimes do that. After my session. I always went to 7/11 to buy my all time favorite Siopao asado. I like it when it is very hot and I put a lot of ketchup inside it. I don't mind people...

Sometimes I think governments should own banks and public transport companies

scheng1 @scheng1 (24649) • Singapore 9 Aug 16

Sometimes I think governments should own banks and public transport companies. That will prevent the CEOs of the banks from making big money when the banks nearly cause the economy to sink. I think it is a mistake to privatize...
