Commuting expense? We're No. 6
from THE ENQUIRER:
Cincinnati has landed on a list of most expensive American cities forcommuters by Forbes Magazine, coming in sixth in the nation behindHouston, Cleveland, Detroit, Tampa and Kansas City. The study looked at percentage of annual expenses devoted totransportation to work and found that 20 percent of household expenseswent to transportation in Cincinnati."Forget taking the train; there is no commuter rail system," the Forbes report concluded.
Well, kids, that's what we voted for! No public transportation...it would cost too much! We'd rather pay out of pocket, and then complain about the price of gas. And about the cost of parking, even though its generally lower here than in most cities. Thanks to Delta, we can't afford to fly anywhere and now thanks to ourselves, we spend far too much of our money driving everywhere.
