I dropped two brown kids at the pool after my afternoon coffee and headed to the bus.

Sunny and 75 in the Nation’s Capital. Tons of eye candy on the mall. You’d think it was 95.

No a/c on the bus. Fuck me running.

That's more about load distribution. You can't have all the waterheads in the back. :coffee:

I love the bus. Gets me two extra hours of sleep each day. Kent Island to DC in the morning; reverse in the afternoon. No muss, no fuss, and our bus is mostly white, with the non-whites being of very upstanding character!!! What’s not to like?

What's not to like? The fact that some day that bus is going straight over the side of the Bay Bridge...

Nope. Driver of my route is a black woman. They can’t swim.

Ain’t no way she’s trying any dumb shit on the Bridge.

Transit subsidy was increased to $255/month last year.

Thanks liberals and green initiatives for saving me money and driving frustration! :thumb:

You are thoughtful people.

In the long run, far cheaper - a parking space in a garage in DC starts around $30,000 to build (cost of land, parking structure) and goes up from there, likely around $50-60K PER space just to build, plus maintenance, staffing, etc. Your subsidy costs $3K per year, so just from reducing parking needs, it comes out ahead.

You have a disagreement with the numbers? Please share your wisdom, since you pride yourself as the authority on every subject.

It isn't surprising that someone like you wouldn't question why building a parking space in a manufactured town that nobody really likes costs 30K

rather than wondering why USAID has to be in DC at all, and not Duluth or Peoria

I've got no issue with your numbers, just your complacency and acceptance of them

I think USAID should be in Rehoboth Beach DE.
