R is Green

I spent forty dollars on gas today. *makes a face*

I didn't fill up the tank either.

I'm deciding to support Measure R.

Measure R is a half-cent sales tax for Los Angeles County that would finance new transportation projects and programs, and accelerate many of those already in the pipeline.

Measure R is expected to generate $40 billion in new local sales tax revenues over 30 years.

I like it because it's green. Public transportation cuts down on fuel consumption and when you are talking about the amount of people who live in Los Angeles County, that's a lot. Would anyone argue that taking cars off the freeway is a bad thing? Public transportation is good.
