Is "bike sharing" the American Way? Read about it here! http://sheldonbrown.com/bike-share.html
Gee, got anti-socialist sentiment much? Sheesh.
News flash, US: it's not a dirty word in the rest of the world.
Mind you, pretty good arguments against the bike share thing....

Hang on, this is some kind of piss-take.

News Flash- It's April Fools Day!
Yeah, forgot about that...

Um, I think you'll find the OP brought it in by linking an article raving in the style of so many horrendous demagogues.
