Where the fuck does it say it's going to buy anyone a car?
It doesn't. It says "supportive services, such as transporation". It means "assist people with bus fare".

I think the unemployed here can get a bus pass that is intended to get them free travel to interviews and job hunting.
We have programs like that as well. When I bought my last bus pass, I believe it was $10 a month, that was because I was disabled. At the time, they had a similar program for those with economic troubles.

No one is buying cars.
i'm gonna go out on a limb and predict that none of that money is spent on an actual program. it just lets politicians have a blank check to write themselves.
