Too Much Common Sense for the City of Brownsville

  1. Because parking is a luxury and if there is an empty space people will pay the 75cents and park. People $5.00 to park during sombrero fest.

    1. --Only people who can afford it. The demographic points to the opposite. Are you dull or just a rich sociopath?

  2. To the above, first commenter,

    I'd like to extend heart-felt condolences to your high-school economics professor and her all-encompassing sense of defeat when she FAILED YOUR ASS for not grasping basic principles of socio-economic strata and supply & demand. Your diploma ranks below 2-ply Charmin, so don't squeeze it.

    Do you REALLY believe that Sombrero Fest attendees and the fees they pay ONE WEEKEND A YEAR justify a 200% hike in HOURLY parking fees for low-income laborers working in the apparel recycling/payday loan slinging/plastic-trinket vending business sectors?

    Or have I just grown tragically tone-deaf to sarcasm?

    Please let it be the latter.

    1. Your missing the point. Earlier comments are that the downtown area would become a ghost town. I don't buy that. People will still go and shop and work regardless of the increase. I got an A in economics. I'm guessing I learned alot more than others.

    2. "I got an A in economics."

      Yet, an F in Grammar and Empirical Observation. Look around downtown, son. It IS a ghost town. Right now. You're (check out that wicked apostrophe in that contraction, dude!) guessing wrong.

    3. An A in economics? LMAO anyone who is business oriented knows this is a bad idea. You my friend are an idiot.

  3. If raising the downtown meter fees is really such an economic windfall, wouldn't it make still more sense to raise the fees to something like, oh, $2-$3 per hour. Jus think how many people those rates would bring downtown; you'd need a wheelbarrow to tote away the money.

  4. Wow, yet you capitalize grammer and empirical observation. You sound like a kool-aid drinker or maybe just a sophisticated moron.
