that's right, folks. so let's break it down for some of you folks who do work more than 7 miles from town: polits want you to stop using your car, save the environment, use public transportation, yada yada noble ideal cause yada. so let's say you take bart to work: you pay $2 for parking or, you find that bart has closed your parking lot and are using it for longterm parking, charging a whopping $7, hereby squeezing the car drivers to pay for that monthly parking or have them duke it out for parking spot in tiny tiny garage. you pay $$$$ for bart ticket, which will increase once again in january, costing you a potential extra $20 a month to go to work. you find out the shuttle that goes to your workplace is moved to an even FURTHER bart station, costing you an additional $20, and find out that shuttle only makes you need to add ONE HOUR to your commute time. in fact, if you actually DROVE to work, you'd get to leave LATER from home, and get back EARLIER. where exactly is the incentive to save the environment and ride public transportation ? oh, i get it. gray davis and co want to make it extremely difficult/inconvenient for you to go to work i see how that boosts our economy. really. as far as i know, when wilson left, we actually had a surplus in the budget. now we're how many billion in deficit ? i didn't vote for that fucker, one disgruntled employee/ ___________________________________________________________________ The D mailing list http://www.djdenise.com/ Check out the new forum! http://www.djdenise.com/forum/
