    The problem with public transportation is just doesn’t work, ECAT has proven that, they do not make enough revenue to support themselves, the taxpayers 4% fuel tax increase is what supports these wasteful government programs. And burdens the taxpayers. You see this all across America and will eventually lead to our downfall!!

    Secondly, I think those kids have some nice artwork, good job kids !!, but whose paying to have those graphics but on that bus or buses?
