Considering that you get one moderate sized suitcase a small bag on airplaces these days, even international flights, I'm not worried about someone trying to travel with multiple people's worth of luggage.I recognize that most of the US can't just be served by mass transit, but trips within NYC, especially to the airports, 100% can be with better mass transit and if people weren't lazy. In an ideal world, the subway would be expanded, service would be good 24/7, same for the busses, and taxis wouldn't operate at all in NYC. But unfortunately, some people are lazy. However, I'm not going to waste money on a taxi sitting in traffic. I'm paying my $2.75 and laughing while some idiot is sitting in traffic in a taxi paying 10x what I am and I'm hauling ass underneath or overhead of them using electric traction power. |
