They already take half my paycheck and I see no progress, only maintenance. Go ahead, just take 2/3 and give me results.

Hell yeah I'd vote for a bond measure/tax increase to pay for the subway -- if I knew it was going to go to the subway and nowhere else. I'd prefer it only go to Westwood and provide a connection to the Expo Line (North/South from Westwood to LAX?). Rico A

one of those trucks with the blinky arrows would help in that department too. let's lift one of those as well.

We can lift some of those cones/placard thingies, so people don't run us over while we're in a trench.

and yes, i'd be more than happy and would most def vote for a tax that would go directly to public transit and no place else tho i fear such an opinion is the minority.

Should we start rounding up the hard hats and orange vests? This could be a new campaign... guerilla public works projects.

Thank you Fred, I feel the exact same way... how about MetroRiderLA spearheading a movement to do just that: volunteer labor for the subway to the sea ought to bring down the costs just a little, right?

Not a very fairly worded question, was it? I'm disappointed. How about phrasing it like this: "Would you be willing to make a tiny investment that will finally get cars off the road, reduce traffic, improve air quality, and make Los Angeles a world-class city? Or would you rather give away tax dollars to Hollywood studio execs, who will be making billions this year without our help?"

I can bring a golden shovel and a camera.

I'd get out there and start digging today if they'd let me.
