They should include a tax breakdown of per mile subsidies and share of taxes that each income bracket contributes for this.

It would be a very very interesting break down to see. Especially for someone besides me to do it.

I must admit though, there is a pretty penny to save if one uses subsidized public transit vs. most average subsidized private automobile transit.
