employees are making housing unaffordable are demanding that the buses pay a fee for their use of the 200 public bus stops.<br><br>Rebecca Solnit reports that "young people were starting bidding

being asked," <br>and in some neighborhoods rent has gone up 
by 135 percent over the past year.   More people and small businesses are also facing evictions because
