Soundoff: Higher Taxes For Transit
I don't understand why they haven't really considered raising the fares to cover some of the shortfall. They spoke about raising them in the last doomsday situation. Why not now? It seems a bit unfair to raise taxes. That means that people who do not use the CTA will be paying for something they don't use. I depend on the CTA, therefore I should carry more of the burden to keep it running. ---Gabriel Carrasquillo
I don't want to sound cold, but just like nobody would pay higher taxes to fund taxi cabs, we shouldn't have to fund metra or pace. If we use it, pay the price you need to pay to ride it. It needs to be self sufficiant. -- John
Those people that do not have access to the transit system should not pay for what they do not use.

Expelled MP May Face Met Inquiry
An MP expelled from the Tory party in the Commons over payments to his son from parliamentary allowances is awaiting news of a possible police inquiry and fresh sleaze investigation. Derek Conway, who was stripped of the Conservative whip by party leader David Cameron on Monday, has been reported to Scotland Yard by a political rival. Duncan Borrowman, the Liberal Democrat challenger for the MP's Old Bexley and Sidcup seat, has written to the Metropolitan Police asking them to examine whether a fraud has been committed. His letter had not been received by detectives late Monday night. Mr Cameron's action followed a highly critical report which condemned Mr Conway's use of parliamentary allowances to pay his son Freddie more than £40,000.
