		<description>Why are budgets at a breaking point? Could it be because trillions of dollars are spent to support profit-making enterprises in the carbon-auto industry?

The city of Philadelphia spends 180 million a year - just for parking enforcement. It collect this money through parking fines which delivery and messenger firms pay and consider a cost of doing business - essentially, a tax.

How many externalities are funded by the taxpayer, consumer, and business to keep the profits rolling in for the oil, natural gas, coal, and auto companies?

The carbon-auto industry is looting the public treasury and crushing other business with congestion, pollution, and parking nightmares.</description>

		<description>This is the definition of a "death spiral"...

“We’re having trouble raising money just to do the studies to determine how much money we’d need.”</description>
