ReplyDeleteA toll bridge from it's opening in 1956, through 1991, the Broadway Bridge was renamed the Buck O'Neil Bridge in 2016, just in time to be declared "deteriorated"!!!
^^^^Why it was named after Buck. It was a worthless bridge so they named it after some irrelevant black guy. If a few years they will name the streetcar after Mahomie because he too was a overpriced nothing that went nowhere.
ReplyDeleteWithdraw the property tax exemption for the Star's printing plant off Truman Road. That will free up a few bucks for the Buck.
ReplyDeleteWould you assholes rather they put in a toll booth or just pay an extra $.05 per paycheck in taxes. Shit, I don't even know why I asked that because I can call the responses now "I never use that damn bridge anyway!".
ReplyDeleteI remember tossing coins into the collection bin to cross the bridge, like feeding the troll. But I used the bridge and didn’t mind paying for it. I don’t use it as much but would still pay for it, IF the money would actually go for the bridge and not be siphoned off for free bus rides or something equally frivolous.
ReplyDelete^^^ and yet you're ok with toll free car rides on all the streets around the bridge. Gubmint teet sucking leach.
