In "economic" terms, it usually comes down to "I don't want you spending my tax money on a class of people I'm not part of". I think the price tag in absolute terms rarely matters, only if the money spent directly serves their selfish interests vs some other group's interests.
Also large road expenditures aren’t even discussed much. What if politicians made as a big a deal of choosing whether or not to make a road investment as they do for transit?
