Re: [D] nrr: your politicians at work, folks (rant)

Anyone remember the times that you didn't have a car? Or your friends didn't 
have a car? If you wanted to go anywhere, you had to get there yourself on 
public transportation or walk your ass there... So we have to go back to 
doing that for awhile.. Big deal... Cars make people lazy.. Sign me up to 
lose some weight.

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,
