dianavan,

"Land owners have a greater say than renters"

Only in that they ( may) be a larger number. Her in the US, one gets to vote whether one ones property or not... A small development you may have overlooked, and a change since the 18th century.

My point was that the reason that the HOTEL GUESTS had buses and the LOCAL RESIDENTS did not was NOT due to race, and the use of race does nothing to help solve the ( obvious) problems.
