JawnV6 posted:i used marta for commuting marta is actually quite nice by us transit standards nice in terms of the trains themselves, and the stations are relatively clean, and the vending machines for farecards and poo poo are nice shame all the racist suburbanites prevent(ed) it from being expanded enough to be a real transit system instead of a joke

Main Paineframe posted:the tax prep industry collectively spends maybe $50 million a year lobbying against it, not including money spent by their respective pacs and superpacs. how much have you spent lobbying for it? when a issue isn't significant enough to have any one-issue voters behind it, the us political system handles things very simply For tax return preparation, Americans spent an amount equal to roughly 20% of the amount collected in taxes. As of August 2012, there are more tax preparers (1.2 million) than there are law enforcement officers (765 thousand) and firefighters (310,400) combined. holy poo poo
