  • This is a chronic problem everywhere. In St. Louis (count and city), we recently added to the sales tax to support our bus system. In well-managed suburbs, buses run empty or with a few passengers. Those routes were cut last year because they didn't have the money to operate them.

  • @fedup -- they don't want money, they want power. Often money comes with power or vice versa but they have more than they need and can do anything they want sans starting a war in another country.

  • Shirley -- you should have planned for your own retirement instead of relying on others to pay on your behalf. In France the air traffic controllers are pissed because that government is taking some drastic measures in an attempt to prevent collapse.

  • The real question is why did this attack vector work? We've been scanning e-mails for years and removing attachments. Why not remove urls that point to .exe, .com, .bat, .vbs, .js, .scr and the like?

• Is $41,000 a reasonable price for the new electric Volt?
