Break down the money for us. Say a painting in a gallery sells for $10,000. How much do the artist and gallery get? Are there any other people involved in the transaction? (Shippers, financing, anything)?

How do people usually pay? Check, cash, card, or transfer?

Secretary Foxx,

It seems like in the US we're trying to scale up this whole "everybody owns a car, and we keep building more highways" thing, and it doesn't seem to be working out. Suburban sprawl, higher population, climate concerns, pollution, gas prices, and all of the rest of the issues make it seem like this kind of way of growing our transportation system just isn't going to work.

But we also know that this is a really cultural issue for Americans, and we love our cars. How do you lure people into trying different modes of development and transportation, without making people feel like the freedom of the open road is being taken from them?
