i agree, and it should cost more for cars to go over bridges, higher bridge tolls and the money could go towards better bike lanes and busses and subways

Ok, I'm evil, but I would love to see gasoline go up to $ 4 or 5 bucks a gallon. I'd like it to get to the point where Americans would wake up and realize that we can't sustain our car-crazy suburban sprawl culture forever.

I'd love to see more people using bikes/walking/ taking public transportation. I'd love to see the obesity levels drop. I'd love to see "paper-boys" (remember those?!) out riding their bikes every evening again. I'd like to see kids riding to school and over to their friend's houses to play , instead of being shuttled from soccer game to soccer game in mom's big gas hog.

Guess I'm sort of an idealist, huh?
