[sustran] More on public transport does NOT exclude people

Wendell,

According to Newman, Kenworthy, Laube, et. al, the cities with the lowest 
total cost of transportation are the ones that have these "expensive" public 
transport systems. The ones with the highest costs are places like Houston 
and Atlanta that are severely sprawled, and have very limited public 
transport. A car based community is the most expensive, of all. Speaking of 
biases, there seems to be some kind of bias against public spending, even if 
it reduces private spending.
