When you are going slow and refuse to move to one of the right lanes, your idiocy helps to contribute to this shit hole traffic hour(s). As for the cameras, it's just one more little piece of misery to add to my drive...I've already received one of those tickets. They fined me as a second offender even though I had never received a ticket prior to this. I haven't paid it, nor did I go to my hearing (i was in austin) I'm going to get out of it no matter how many lines I have to stand in, or how many hours the city bureacracy puts me on hold for, I deserve my money more than these greedy lechersmelissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16073654985519856614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4662430175624645998.post-73691987667310355972007-03-17T17:08:00.000-06:002007-03-17T17:08:00.000-06:00re: Hearing tomorrow on wife's 2 tickets.

It was good business.<BR/><BR/>You're making this way too complicated. There's way too much money to be made by the contractor to be implicated in any impropriety. <BR/>Locally, there are way too many political incentives already built-in (...my, what a big general fund you have, grandma!) for local politicians to get caught with a hand in this particular till. <BR/><BR/>Unfortunately, there are many other tills built into our democracy(?) for that.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4662430175624645998.post-78133068761672474642007-03-12T17:26:00.000-06:002007-03-12T17:26:00.000-06:00Sorry kiddies, but there is no grassy-knoll shoote...Sorry kiddies, but there is no grassy-knoll shooter; there are no aliens in Roswell; Elvis, Kurt Cobain, Tu Pac and Anna Nicole are dead; and we did walk on the moon.

That's because the city is fleecing and 'shaking you down' with new taxes on animals, alarm Unit fees(taxes)Red Light & Speed Van Fines,Fees(taxes)and next; lets everyone be forced( bend over) to change out their faucets for low flow ones, just in case you think that the water coming out into your bathroom sink has too much pressure. How do you think everyone at city hall is affording the extras they have or just flat out making a living? Think real hard now. It's called kick back, pay-ola. Albuquerque is getting a "Financial Enema" compliments of Mayor Marty and some 'bought and paid for' City Councilors. Can you now smell the roses? Or, in this case the manure?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4662430175624645998.post-78540539357276210002007-03-09T10:57:00.000-07:002007-03-09T10:57:00.000-07:00Who's the MORON?!

In other words, I've got one term left(Mayor, Mayer)and I must have my retirement egg set aside. I've never seen anyone go to the lenghts these people go to, to hold on to their money raising ideas and projects, instead of just saying, ok we won't fight the public, we'll make some changes. No, they will fight the very public that put them in office, because they only care about they're personal bank accounts, in another state or country ( they have to launder the kick back money somehow)We know how Marty's doing it- and we think we know how Mayer is doing it as well. Lets see, how many projects and out of sate companies has the city hired to fleece us? Have you ever seen politicians fight so hard when there's money involved?
