Right? Like the worst thing they could say is that she.... Fixed the public bus system so it actually functions on time instead of being inconsistent? Like, I don't get how these people think that's such a bad thing.

Cause they had an extra lane for their private vehicle and they feel like a service their taxes paid for has been robbed from them to serve people "that haven't worked hard enough for it." They worked hard to buy and pay for their car and they feel upset if their ability to use their private vehicle on public infrastructure has been diminished. Despite the fact that cars have been given the vast majority of space and funding for decades. There is also nothing stopping them from using the improved bus service except their preconception that "its for the poors."

Oh I know their logic. I just don't get their logic cause it's fucking dumb.
