‘Super Streets’ to Ease Misery
In your article “Road Congestion Relief on Way Via 21 ‘Super Streets’ ” (Sept. 14), some merchants along Harbor Boulevard in Fullerton seemed opposed to the county’s super street plan, on the grounds that traffic that is at a dead stop is good for their business.
This strikes me the same way as if a hospital were to oppose the surgeon general’s anti-smoking campaign because of all the business lung cancer and emphysema patients bring in.
Sometimes people benefit financially from others’ misery, but those people should not stand in our way when we try to relieve the misery.
