Toll hikes restrictresidents’ mobility

Re: “Toll hikes could rise to more than $11” (Web page A1, Oct. 26).

As a lifelong Bay Space resident I’ve seen the bridge tolls improve for the reason that Nineteen Eighties from 40 cents per crossing to $7, quickly to be $8. Metropolitan Transportation Fee and the Affiliation of Bay Space Governments are actually proposing one other improve to $10.50 by 2030.

Freedom of motion is necessary to everybody and establishing financial boundaries equivalent to these tolls impacts residents’ capability to maneuver across the Bay Space.

I imagine all bridge and street tolls have to be eradicated utterly all through California. The publicized argument for extra will increase is the necessity for bridge upkeep, but present bridge tolls are used for initiatives not associated to bridge work.

Don’t flee; keep andfight for our future

I’ve no endurance with those that speak of fleeing to Canada. Don’t minimize and run; keep and struggle for California.

I used to be born right here; that is my homeland. In case you weren’t, you got here right here for a motive. Was it the mountains, the ocean, the rivers and timber that we shield and preserve? Was it to construct a greater life within the fifth largest financial engine on this planet? Was it that we embrace people who find themselves identical to us, solely completely different?

Don’t abandon us. We want your skillset, your values, your dedication. Resist. Make your voice heard. Help your beleaguered elected officers and nonprofits. You aren’t alone. Roughly half the nation feels identical to you do.

Increase your children to not be bullies, liars and jerks. The grass might not be as inexperienced as you assume elsewhere. Regroup, dig in and defend California.

That is your nation now.

Election outcome reflectspoorly on our nation

What does it say about our nation when a majority of People elect a president who’s a convicted felon; is an adulterer adjudicated to have dedicated sexual assault; pushed for faux electors to steal the election; informed Mike Pence, the vp, to disregard the Structure and never depend electoral votes; wished to make use of federal troops to grab poll containers; ran a marketing campaign full of lies; used racism to stoke concern; has vowed to deport immigrants; has vowed to disregard freedom of the press and prosecute firms who report issues that he doesn’t like; needs to weaponize the justice system to take revenge.

What does it say? It says you’ll be able to’t idiot all of the individuals on a regular basis however generally you’ll be able to idiot sufficient individuals to be elected president. It shouts that poor character, prison convictions, unlawful and unethical previous conduct, and promised future conduct that ignores the Structure aren’t necessary.

Democrats aren’t eliteswe ought to fear about

Re: “Voters to Democratic elites: Do you see me now?” (Web page A13, Nov. 10).

Democrats aren’t those who profit probably the most from outsourcing jobs to different international locations, from changing employees with automation, from killing native small companies and household farms, from decrease taxes on company income and capital beneficial properties, and in the end from Donald Trump’s election. The true “elites” on this nation are the uber-wealthy, together with Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos and different people who apparently care extra for income than for individuals.

So, sure, the Democratic elites could also be deaf to the considerations of the common American. However, the Republican elites apparently hear these considerations and simply don’t care. Let’s watch out about blithely assuming that Democrats are “the elites” or that they’re the issue.

Anti-tobacco movementgives youth a voice

Within the coronary heart of the Bay Space, a motion is taking form — a collective of passionate youth decided to reclaim their communities from the grip of the tobacco business.

The Group Motion Mannequin represents not only a response to a urgent public well being disaster, however a clarion name for youth empowerment and community-driven change.

Our imaginative and prescient is evident: to guard the subsequent technology from the predatory practices of Massive Tobacco. We goal to spotlight the important position that youth play on this struggle and the pressing want for coverage reforms that prioritize their well being and future.
