"drivers already are raising the possibility of taking the week off during the convention"

Might as well, Democrat delegates don't tip.

Why you ask is the City of Boston trying to save delegates money, when the purpose of a city hosting a convention is to make money off of the delegates? I'll tell you why.

43% of the delegates will be traveling on AFL-CIO expense accounts. The AFL-CIO owns the Boston city council and is looking for ways to pass their expenses on to the taxpayers. Next will be hotel and restaurant and hooker vouchers.

BINGO!! You win the prize for the best question!!

The conventions are so people in the city MAKE money!!

The Dems want to pay the taxi drivers $10.00 and out of that the drivers have to pay a $4.50 toll!!! YIKES!! Talk about getting screwed!
