LOL! Alaska has almost no public transit. Visit their website.
Are they saying Alaska spend more than Boston? It's a joke.
You don't need a state to spend billions in public transit like New York City. All you need is one bus or rail line that provides moderate service and you can be carfree.
This weekend, I was using the bus like crazy traveling with my bike on the rack. I was reaching distances that would have cost me 20 dollars in gas or more for $2.00 dollars.
