| Message | We've never covered this issue before. It's kinda obscure. I've never heard of a central governemnt determining a public transportation policy... But eh... |

| Message | It's our opinion that states must grant some aid to the least favoured on this issue. People that do not own a car bus still have to cover a certain distance to work need public transports, and charging them too much on that will not help them to quit povrety. |

| Message | That'd be good, but I'd prefer some direction given from the Federal government, especially as this is concerning welfare... |
