It does sound like something EBR would do though. Provide a shitty service and penalize people for not using it. Very economically liberal thinking.


Exactly. I agree it's liberal in thinking. But. This kind of shite is happening now with taxes on drivers over certain miles. That day is coming.

I'm just wondering if something like that couldn't help fix interstate traffic before a load of dirt is turned on infrastructure.

Bottomline is motherfrickers moved out the parish because schools sucked, crime sucked, blah blah blah. All valid reasons. But they continue to commute to BR for work and bitch about traffic but want NO loop through their parish.

I'm throwing a big what if EBR said "frick you outsiders", pay up to park here or use the shuttle.

It is a bold option. St George would have no problem spinning off when small business couldn't keep employees or had their operating cost too high.

BR aleady has to overcome enough negatives to look attractive to new businesses. fricking with employees that have other options would just be another negative.
