Thank you Gary Miller, Hilda Solis, David Drier, Diane Watson, and Grace Napolitano for representing the people on this issue. This MTA "toll the carpool lane" fiasco is a poor idea. MTA should use tolling to complete the 710 tunnel, not to punish carpoolers for saving gas. If the US Department of Transportation has $214 million of "our" tax money they can't figure out how to use effectively, use it to complete the Gold Line extension. As usual the MTA and DOT just doesn't get it.....but, this is still a democracy.

Thank you Rep. Gary Miller for looking out for the little people. Maybe the Metro should look at finding extra monies for fixing the roads and not taxing us even more to just use our roads. I think the MTA has gotten to big for it's britches and needs to be down sized and just maybe with out all the extra spending going on there just like the water companies there would be extra money. NO MORE TAXES no toll roads.

A question I have, why is it only proposed on those 3 freeways? It seems grossly unfair for those living in the IE. I use the 10 fwy to get to work and I carpool with two others. It seems to me that if those lanes are congested then people ARE carpooling. Can't they figure out another way to speed up traffic? I know I can't use the bus to get to work and I can't afford to pay a toll. They are punishing those who are doing their part. Thank you for speaking up for us Rep. Miller!

I can't afford to pay for anything else. The cost to living is already out of control. I think it's unfair to the working class people. We already pay for enough "no more"!!

No Gold Line; then no sales tax and No Toll lanes! Refuse taxation without representation. Don't buy big ticket items in LA County, use the internet. And just revolt and disregard the toll lanes. If you get a ticket don't pay. It will only work if everyone joins in.

We need a succession movement from Los Angeles now. Those criminals will keep riding us for taxes until we're dead.

Who ever puts together a succession movement from Los Angeles will get honored with a statue at both ends of the SGV. The SGV has enough money to become the next Orange County and can be great if we use our money on ourselves. We should annex the unincorporated areas of LA that are a blight in our communities, fix them up and have nothing to do with Los Angeles County except maybe contract with them for emergency services when needed. We pay an arm and a leg for those services anyway.

It is as clear as day now. The SGV makes the money. We pay taxes. LA country takes money. They are tax takers. We give; they take and give it to anyone in LA County but us. That is the only relationship we have with LA County. Most recently they have been bullied by the San Fernando Valley mafia after this area ran a successful succession movement. Good for them, bad for us.

These bastards in LA City Hall and at the MTA think we are too complacent and stupid to put together a succession movement. LA County and those city hall bribe taking crooks think we are nothing more than a bunch of do nothing aging W.A.S.P’s coupled with gullible money making immigrants. Let’s pack our shit and leave and see how well they do when the gravy train stops.

Antonio is pushing the "toll the carpool lane" fiasco to get access to the Federal "Congestion Pricing" Grant, so he can pay off the bus drivers union not to go on strike when he runs for re-election next year. That's why he is trying to blackmail the San Gabriel Valley on this "toll the carpool lane" fiasco, by holding the Gold Line hostage. Antonio has had idiots for advisors, and doesn't apparently spend enough time in the city to know or care what's going on. Maybe it is time to replace him?
