Great story, I'm really happy things worked out for but what is 'that kind of attitude'? I hope you're not implying ppl who don't pick up random change and pop cans on the street don't work hard...
My underlying point, nothing more or less, was that ppl are mad at the current toll and not the $0.15 toll increase. The increase just provides the platform for ppl to bitch and complain about the same old thing, with a slightly fresher twist. And ppl in this city love to bitch, it's what we do. Those who are happily or begrudgingly taking the bridge and paying the $3 toll, will continue to do so paying $3.15 for the forseeable future
