Survey Says: Give Us Mass Transit, Not More Roads!
Read it and weep, Antiplanner and Karlock.
The bad news? Americans are opposed to any new toll roads, 2 to 1. So where the Antiplanner and I agree, we are both going against the tide of public opinion. Maybe DeFazio the demagogue is on to something ...

demagoguery implies illogic, deception, or prejudice. defazio may be grandstanding, but he's doing it on behalf of his constituents (who obviously support him). i don't see how you can call him a demogogue for taht.
The report is skewed, just read the questions...
Amazing how English sentences can be structured to imply a preset answer or idea.
I support more transit, but as I noted on the blog that links yours, I do not support more transit under precepts of lies, propaganda, or other misleading efforts.
Funny how when folks don't like the results of a survey, it must be 'skewed'. At least we aren't calling it a "push-poll" (scare quotes).
Best,
