C4AC #4 – Boycotting
Comment for a Cause (C4AC) is back for it’s 4th year. C4AC is my way to raises funds & awareness. This year I’ve picked BC Children’s Hospital as my charity of choice. Each comment this site gets equals $1 that I will be donating at the end of the month.. Don’t forget to keep up to date by subscribing to my rss feed
My cousins fiancee been babbling on about this don’t buy gas tomorrow nonsense, it may sound like a good idea but if you really look into it. Not purchasing gas on a set day isn’t gonna do anything as your are gonna fill up or have already your vehicle this week in gas.
Always seen things as half full, and always two sides to the story kind of person. The price of gas will keep increasing even if nobody likes it as there are A LOT cars on the road, but yet more greener cars and fuel is being harder to find. For example if you look at any public transport ie, ferries, transit buses they might have a full load of people one trip and barely anyone the next. They aren’t gonna stop running because they don’t have the max number of people on board.
Sure I was personally venting the other day about how much I personally pay for gas on my car.. Now try being the person who deals with public transit and how much it costs to fill up every bus in the city. Would not want to be in their shoes at all.
Though I’ve always thought instead of just increasing the ticket prices and making the people in the ‘burbs folk out more money. Is to have more buses out there servicing all over the place, non of this lack of service on Sunday bull crap anymore and have long hours of running on Thursday to Sunday nights/Monday morning for those who work at pubs and or are coming home from a pub. Also though about having different pay grid for different areas is stupid.. Just make it one grid for the whole city so it doesn’t matter if you are just traveling in the city or to the ‘burbs. I dunno.. to me it makes sense..
If you could change your public transit system in your area, what would you do?
