Why Does Fayette Co Hate Atlanta

Much of the anti-transit sentiment has to do with not wanting to further connect Clayton with Fayetteville.

Fayette County does not belong in the T-SPLOST region. They did not want to be in it and they will vote against it, in mass. Even though much waste exists in the T-SPLOST, mostly due to integrating outlying counties and buying their votes with pointless projects, I still hope it passes.

As a side note:
In order to pass a grand vision for transit in the entire Atlanta region, specifically Commuter Rail, planners are going to have to understand the mindset of Fayette County and other outlying counties. Planners are going to have to design and sell it differently here than in places like Cobb, Dekalb, and Gwinnett. They must understand that places like Fayette County are largely rural and they want to stay that way. And guess what... there is nothing wrong with that.

Hmm.

This gives me an idea.
