Bay subburbs get an "F"

by Chehotep (Dynasties [at] aol.com)
Bird cages, corporate consumer stripmalls, and planned traffic jams Bay Area subs get an "F"
To live in this area is begginng to cost more than the price of living. Yes we enjoy the beautiful weather, highest gas prices, and rediculous housing prices but wait. Theirs more to come. Because subburban Architects choose the way they manufacture corporate friendly product availability, for example their interstate shopping mall unconvienantly next to the busy highway, nieghborhoods separated by railroad tracks, and interstate highway traffic disasters.
If you have noticed these past years more and more highway malls in the eastbay are sprouting up without the availability of public transit only to cause more havic when propositions are passed later on to supply transit. I the Small city of Milpitas CA. city planners more concerned with revenue desighned a city that went away from the center of town to construct a interstate revenue built shopping mall city. Main street was abandoned in order to make citizens use a few streets to go east to west over the train tracks from more populated areas to business areas. Its great for traffic police and places that enjoy opening up next the place where everyone has to shop. but what about the consumers and workers that spend and extra hour in traffic.
Regardless of oppinion the ultra corporate city of Milpitas is only one of the many california subburbs that represent Americas relentles pursuits of getting more you dollars. There city planning represents a stress network for capitalist gains from the gas tank to housing!

I suppose your point is well-taken but there are so many grammar and spelling errors that your article is almost impossible to read. It is also an insult to all the teachers who do try seriously to provide an education. Please write your article on your word-processing program and check the spelling and grammar before posting it. You will not only achieve better communication, you will gain an education and the respect of all concerned.
