For example, in New York City, only private buses are allowed on the city's streets. This has led to a rise in the number of people using public transportation.

grants, which require that both parents be 18 years old and the father be identified by name, age and social security number, Meyers said.
"Right now, the system says, 'If you will have a couple of children, we will give you $18,000 to find a home, go to school and pay child care.'" Meyers said. "You'll be caught in the welfare trap for life."

"We're borrowing against our children's future," Meyers said. "And it's hard for other countries to respect us if we don't have our own house in order."
Meyers said she also was concerned about deficit reduction.
Although Meyers does not have a specific plan to reduce the deficit, she said that too much money was being taken from social security.
"Small business is the engine of our economy," Meyers said. "It provides most of the jobs in our country, much of the innovation and all of the first

son would contribute to the show.
The applicants discussed everything from sex and politics to why they "needed to get out of Kansas."
Brown, who works for Haskell Video Productions, offered to film any student who wanted to audition for the show. But Brown received more responses than he bargained for after an article about the auditions appeared Tuesday in The University Daily Kansas.
"In the two days after the article ran, I got almost 200 phone calls from people who wanted to audition," Brown said. "I just scheduled the first people who called me and had to turn a lot of people away."
The deadline for submitting a videotape is tomorrow, and Brown said he did not plan to film any more applicants.
Holly Heckathorn, Columbia, Md., senior, called Brown as soon as she read the article.
"I called him the second I got home from class," she said. "I'd been telling people since this summer that I wanted to be on 'The Real World,' and when I saw the article, I couldn't believe that I was going to have the chance to audition."
AIDS victim's story gets Clinton's attention
Kansan staff report
The plight of Pedro has caught the eye of the nation, including the president, according to a White House press release.
Pedro Zamora, 22, one of the stars of MTV's "The Real World," is battling AIDS in a Miami hospital. He has been HIV-positive since he was 17 years old.
"The Real World" documents the real lives of seven people living in a house in San Francisco.
President Clinton praised Zamora in a video, which was played at a Los Angeles benefit Oct. 23.
"Pedro is a role model for all of us," Clinton said. "He's shown the courage and strength to move beyond himself, reaching out to others while struggling with his own illness."
Zamora has become a representative for young people with AIDS, having addressed numerous community groups, schools and the Presidential Commission on AIDS.
The president, who talked to Zamora by phone in September, is trying to unite Zamora and his family for the first time in 14 years. Many members of Zamora's family live in Cuba.
