Both of you make sense. I don't know what the answer is, but if more lanes were it, Atlanta would be a commuter's heaven instead of the shithole it is.
The answer is basic economics. Subsidize the behavior your want to encourage, and tax the behavior you want to discourage. Commuter rail should be close to free, and highway tools should be expensive.
