Welcome to the Machine

Description

Once or twice a generation, a person comes along who willingly risks everything in the fight for basic human dignity. Nelson Mandela. The Dalai Lama. And, now, Joel Gwynn.

If you live in the Greater Boston area, you might know him from his web site, Bostonsweeper.com. He might even have saved you a hundred, two hundred, or--if you're like Tommy--thousands of dollars. You see, in Boston, twice a month--at an interval that no normal human being can possibly keep track of--a brigade of over-eager tow truck drivers tow every car on one side street of every street in the city. Why do they do this? Presumably so they city can sweep the streets and the city will be clean.

But why do they really do it? Think about it. The drivers get paid for every car they tow. Do they want you to remember to move your car? No. Plus, the city gets 25 bucks for the ticket they slap on every car that gets towed. Then, the tow-storage yard slaps a "storage fee" on the car. Everybody gets rich! Except the poor car owner who has no way to get to work, has to take a cab to the tow yard and then shell out 100 bucks to get his car back. It's a revenue scam, in our humble opinion.
