They could take a sandwich and read a book while at the Doctor's waiting room. Businesses like Publix and Target might be willing to kick in some startup money because their sales might go up 10 %.
.........I doubt very much that a mass transit system has ever been researched and proposed here. It is easiest to just ASSUME that something like that won't work because so many retirees have Golf Carts. But a blind person or a special needs person can't drive a Golf Cart. And many older people go blind from macular degeneration. And many people would take a bus IF that WERE an option here. Car insurance is going up and gas prices are going up.

.Honestly don't see mass transit coming to TV. You can have groceries and restaurant food delivered. Order almost anything and have delivered. Need to go to a Doctor use Uber. Where would bus stations be located? People who have physical handicaps or are blind cannot wal to and from a bus stop. There comes a point where people have to move. That's life.
