Transportation in Sao Paulo (Pardue)

Derek Pardue, contemplates on the City of Sao Paulo and it's transportation. Of how you can determine a person social class by what they ride for transportation. Whether a bus, train, or private ride are all factors that can be determine of a person's wealth or living. Pardue, conducts field-work interviews with two residents of Sao Paulo, who both take transportation not for what they can only afford but for their personal preference. One of them is a young boy named Robson, who comes from a middle to low class family. Who prefers to ride the bus than the train due to him wanting to experience the view of the City. The other informant named Edliane, who is a professional who had experienced taking the train and had a private driver, but enjoyed taking the subway than having being driven around; because of the Modern feel she gets when she see business people surrounded around the city. These two informants come from different social classes one poor and the other wealthy but both enjoy taking the subway, which leads to the moral of the article using the subway does not determine your social class because anyone can ride it whether poor or richhhh!
