Silver Line Revisited

     What some of our supervisors, local business leaders and financiers conveniently neglect to mention is that the consumer fuels the economic growth engine and therefore the job market.  With an estimated 6000 dollars per year soon to be taken from the average consumer's pocket  for tolls, parking and metro fare plus an unknown future property tax burden, our economic well-being and job security is in jeopardy.  Remember, only snake oil salesmen tell the unsuspecting customer that this is their only chance for a magic cure. There is no magic cure and there are less costly alternatives to paying for metro for the rest of our lives. The county supervisors should put an end to this madness and vote no on the Silver Line question in July.
