Please! A thief from downtown Indy isn't going to hop on mass transit to travel up to Carmel to steal your precious flatscreen TV. Debate the costs of mass transit - fine. But, don't try to scare people into thinking mass transit will help spread crime. It doesn't happen.

And by the way - even a bankrupt Detroit sees the benefits of investing in mass transit. http://www.forbes.com/sites/toyota/2013/07/23/hope-for-detroit-rail-transit-on-the-way/

How about we make the billionaire team owners pay the bill for the buildings in which they pay. That would free up the 2% sales tax on food for mass transit and end corporate welfare.

Well I bet Erika isn't speaking to Tully anymo...

An important thought: The Detroit suburbs are safe, beautiful, and have the wealthiest people in Michigan. They have a solid tax base...and maybe it is because there is no tax and spend mass transit rail system to EXPORT the Detroit crime!!!

It appears that gang members, thugs, and criminals don't want to put out the effort to go outside of the danger zone to commit crimes. It's a lot easier to duck into a train station than it is to go to a bus stop and stand there visible to everyone to wait the get-away ride!

-Just wondering if the mass transit tax and spend rail proposal passed here, if places like Carmel and Noblesville would see crime the likes of The Meadows, Brightwood, Haughville, or West Side???
