You know who can eat a dick?

California state Sen. Alan Lowenthal (D-Ickeater), that's who:

State lawmakers are taking aim at what some of them see as a menace to California's environment: free parking.

There is too much of it, the legislators say, and it encourages people to drive instead of taking the bus, walking or riding a bike. All that motoring is contributing to traffic jams and pollution, according to state Sen. Alan Lowenthal (D-Long Beach), and on Thursday he won Senate approval of a proposal he hopes will prompt cities and businesses to reduce the availability of free parking.

"Free parking has significant social, economic and environmental costs," Lowenthal said. "It increases congestion and greenhouse gas emissions."
Hey, eater of dicks, you might not have noticed, but we've pretty much got the shittiest economy since the Joad family rolled into the state. That has some rather significant social and economic costs, too. Oh, silly me, you're too busy gobbling cocks up in Sacramento to notice trivial shit like that. Or, for that matter, to realize how deeply unpopular raising more fucking fees on the backs of working people is going to be. Silly me again...I'm assuming people who would have to shoulder the burden of these increased fees still have, you know, fucking jobs.

In short, please die in a fire, you cock-smoking piece of shit.

2 Suggestion: move out of the state like I did! It's not going to get anything but worse in the near-to-mid term and you can always go back when they get their in gear sometimes around mid-century.

3 I've seen this article elsewhere and am still waiting for somebody in Cali to find out if their State Senators get free parking at work. If nobody pushes back against these elitists, then you get whats coming to you.

Gawd, I'm really starting to hate these people!
