I totally agree. Living in a grotesque cement jungle such as the Dallas metroplex is really cumbersome at times. Thankfully I now get to work from home permanently, but even driving from my suburb to my office on the other side of the suburb is 30 minutes of traffic, pollution, frustration, but some good sports radio though. Taking the rail into downtown was some of my most relaxing time as a commuter though. I'd be okay getting taxed up the ass if it meant we go all in on better public transportation and the elimination of clogged roads.
