No doubt it would be good for the environment, but do you really want to foot the tax bill when most people will still not use it?
I am pissed enough that my wife has a MANDATORY $75/semester "transit fee" applied to her student union dues because her student ID is also a valid transit pass - that she never uses because the bus doesn't run anywhere near her class schedule.
You want to help the environment, raise the gas tax, and stop subsidizing coal power plants.
