Why would any rational, thinking individual vote yes in the upcoming transportation funding referendum?
Is TransLink not the same body that mismanaged the issuing of tickets for fare violators knowing they could not collect them? What about the faregate and Compass card debacles? And what about the exorbitant salaries, bonuses and perks of senior management, rivalling if not surpassing those available in the private sector?
When will we learn the only real source of government revenue comes from taxation? And that means taxpayers like you and me.
So send yet another message to governments at all levels that continue to spend the dollars they take away from us as though they were their own. Vote no on the referendum.
