Maybe they could spend the taxes we already pay more effectively?

We need alternate reliable public transit in place so people can get around easier. There are so many people that aren’t able to use public transit bc of where they live and then you have other people that have to use private vehicles for work bc they have to have their equipment available as they work. I don’t have an answer for making people less reliant on cars but taxing the working class more bc they have to drive doesn’t sound great.

My roommate at the time told me that even if they convicted OJ Simpson of murder that he should be acquitted due to his--and I shit you not-- "contributions to Football."
Shitty, yes; surprising? Not anymore.

Nope. Aside from not wanting the gov't to have a more convenient way of tracking my movements, I drive mostly for my work.

That's probably way less financially rewarding, but it could help!

I've heard conflicting information about building in Ballard (Seattle) or Moss Bay (Kirkland) from local family that actually met Costeau.

Unfortunately. However, we are striving to improve this.

No. They are already forcing us to pay for long term care insurance through the state. This is a big NO.

Man I can’t wait for this exact same article but with Mike Leach replaced with Kanye.
Turns out being good at shit and kind of funny absolves all sins.

Definitely a good football technician. Definitely an entertaining media person. Definitely a complete & total fucking asshole.

I barely want to do drivewise and such.
My cars don't qualify for the volunteering, but I drive a lot for my current line of work. I am more concerned about the tracking and how they want to do it.

.......and way more expensive and not worth the price hike. Also, I'm not sure if you are aware but the job market in Silicon Valley sucks right now.

Is “character” the word we’re using for racist conspiracy theorists who supported an Insurrectionist? I’m perfectly fine with this coach not being here anymore. I hope his family is better than him, but I’m not holding my breath.

How is that any different than if you filled up your tank in Washington and then drove in Oregon? As for the GPS, almost everyone already has GPS on their phone, I could care less if they put one in my car too.

I am older, and grew up with Jacques Cousteau as a world renowned hero. Not only was he an inventor of our modern scuba pressurized gear, but his exploits were just awesome, inspirational, and most of all fascinating. I'm glad he's being honored and revered, as is his ship.
