Public transit is public infrastructure.

Did you move into your house before the road to it was built? Or before the water, sewage, and electricity was built?

If we thought of transit the same way, we could have policies like developers need to consider transit connections on new developments just like they'd need to consider roads, sewers and electrcity. The longer we put off building transit, the longer its gonna take to have it working and reducing carbon emissions.

What does that have to do with a carbon tax or what I said? Seems you're making an argument on my behalf and then arguing with yourself.
