I have absolutely no idea what this has to do with anything. It's just a cheap attempt at demonization because you have no other argument.

Its call the Deportment of Transportation and the money trickles down to the States to maintain Roads and Bridges.

Still remains what are they doing with our money. The NE is heavily taxes and they have some of the worse roads. Someone is making money and the tax payers are not getting there ROI

400 sq feet is not enough, maybe for one person if you don't have anything except the basic needs, it can be done. Forcing people on to public transportation because of higher gas tax, that is ridiculous.

Some only want basic needs for the masses so they can make sure to have more for themselves.

It's an example of the "let them eat cake" syndrome.

Well it's no wonder you missed my point then.

Are you OK with the government helping people maintain their poor choices or not?
