		Reasons To DisagreePublic transport will either live or die on its desirability, not on its subsidised status 24 April 2006 
			Its still not going to work 20 October 2006 
			The motorist already pays through his nose for the "priviledge" of driving on our pathetic road system. 28 September 2008 
			roading companies are very wealthy due to overprice machinery supplied by other countrys therefore forcing us to pay more fore roading, can solve this by the government put 1 billion into manufacturing new zealand made equipment 18 February 2010

		Reasons To AgreeOur public transport infrastructure has been neglected for decades. Peak oil, high oil prices are going to mean that a lack of public transport will really hobble our economy. This is an urgent issue. 19 January 2006 
			Motivation to use public transport 26 March 2006 
			Any way to improve our public transport networks is a good thing. 16 March 2007

Reasons for Remain Neutral
special taxes should cover what they where collected for - was public transport mentioned?
