Jim Hightower, one of my favorite muckrakers and publisher of the Hightower Lowdown, has this advice for us wannabe social reformers. “If you want to go upstream, you have to swim against the current. Even a dead fish can go with the flow.”
Taking a page from the Hightower book, I have prepared this online petition. Anyone wishing to sign this petition may go to the following Web site: www.ipetitions.com/petition/taxforpublictransportarion.
Petition: Recognizing the need to curb greenhouse gas emissions, and seeking viable alternatives to rising gasoline prices, we, the undersigned, would support a one cent increase in the gasoline tax to be earmarked for upgrading public transportation systems throughout the state.
