Newspapers are having a tough time getting advertisers these days.

There is a fairly new Media Outlet on the block....it is the Busses, Trains, and Subways owned by County Governments.

With advertising dollars moving away from Newspapers...and moving onto the mobile billboards we see on our streets....

Who benefits? If the Newspapers go out of Business, who will be there to let the public know of problems in our Federal, State, and Local Governments.

This was one of the more dramatic turning points for the Government death of Carpooling.
Not Carpool Lanes mind you.... The Los Angeles MTA gets a good chunk of cash from "managing" the construciton of Carpool Lanes. They just don't want us to carpool. Which is why you hear so much about HOT lanes or ... converting carpool lanes to toll lanes.

From the MOU on carpooling "Authorize the Chief Executive Officer to execute a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Riverside County Transportation Commission (RCTC) for rideshare development and support services for Los Angeles County during the second half of FY03 and FY04 in an amount not to exceed a total of $625,000. "

Gee $312,500 on carpooling each year? With the MTA having over $4Billion annual budget?

Our Government obviously gets too much revenue from cars.

IRAQ

Iraq, Iraq, Iraq.

What a mess....

So Hillary, John, and Obama talk about how they would do Iraq "differently". Some claim they are going to bring the troops home ... anytime soon.

Let's take a deeper look at the situation.....

Those of us in California ... Progressive California mind you .... are rejoicing over the new announcement of tighter EPA rules.

OK so the EPA rules are not really that tighter.

On the bright side, while there are 345 new cities that fail the tigher EPA rules....there is a bright side for Los Angeles.

It all makes no difference to LA....

Californias Politicians are pretty poor Leaders.

They are much better at selling cars.

And that is something we need to be aware of as we face problems of high energy prices.
