I take my bike to the Sprinter station in Vista, and get a $12 day pass that opens up the whole county to me. I ride the train to Oceanside, then the Coaster train to San Diego. The trolleys and busses are all covered in that price too. For $5 it leaves off the Coaster train and I can take the Sprinter, busses and Trolley for the day. Then I hop off with my bike and have the run of an area. Works great.
Most of that money and resources that is squandered on bombs and drones could be used to build infrastructure that improves the quality of life for everyone instead of a select few. It's a choice.
Okay, being a visual kind of guy, I will share this clip from the Coaster as it leaves the Sprinter in the dust.
