People need transportation they can afford and rely on to get to work. Taking public transportation every day can cost over $1,000 per year. The government can make lower fare programs. The government can also grow public transportation. This would make public transportation more accessible. Businesses can also lower fares by giving aid before taxes to workers. More public transportation in targeted communities would help people get and keep jobs.
