REFLECTION QUESTIONTransportation Use Public TransitThe US spends roughly 20% of its federal budget on defense. In contrast, 2% goes to education, 20% goes to social security and 3% goes to transportation infrastructure. Do these numbers surprise you at all? Why or why not?
Lisa Palmieri 10/24/2018 3:41 PMYes I’m surprised that it’s such a low percentage. I take my son to school via public transportation and then to work. It’s a great convenience not to have to use my car.
