Sorry FRiend, but I disagree with you. IMHO, the overwhelming majority of the people on the 495 have benefited greatly from the Washington & Wall Street war waged on Main Street.
The DC Metro area has the lowest unemployment and highest property values in the country. They have felt no pain during the Obama recession; indeed, they have thrived.
I daresay these people could give a rat's arse about the difficulties endured by these truckers. An hour of inconvenience is a small price for them to pay.
So you’re saying the intent of this was to piss off people just for the sake of pissing them off, then? If so, conservatism has been set back by years.
