Got a link? Ridership is nowhere near 2X.

Cars are so inefficient that a 10% reduction of traffic into Manhattan is barely a blip on subway ridership.

You got him! Schumer wants a spot in Trump's fascist regime. 🙄

Pointlessly being an ass to everyone in the thread should put your ideology on top. Keep at it!

Bullying Biden and Congress into the belief that secure borders are "right wing" is why Democrats lost the election.

I can't see into people's hearts, but I'm pretty sure GreenLatinos is progressive. www.greenlatinos.org

Planting trees where there are no trees is popular and good. Framing popular and good things in the least popular way is a bad, but common, habit for Democrats and progressives.

We've bullied both the police and "Karens" out of maintaining social order so public spaces devolve into their worst versions. People with money can afford to flee these spaces and move to privately maintained spaces. But the poor and civic life suffer.

Sounds like there is untapped demand to expand pedestrian oriented spaces.

I've never been to an academic conference. Are violent threats common?

She seems to have a pretty lucrative career as a Democratic influencer: selling books, hosting podcasts, being on boards...

Reporting on the efficacy of children's medicine is good though. Additionally, I don't think you've correctly assigned the directionality of the bullying and harassment.

Does collective ownership of property such as in co-ops and condos add obstacles to future redevelopment and further densification of that land?

Between Biden, Ginsburg, Kagan, and Sotomayor we will regret the age of gerontocracy so much. Congressional issues may not even make the top five.

Democrats have been strutting around for decades making fun of the simple language of Republican presidents rather than trying to emulate it. Though to be fair, Bush and Trump both had trouble constructing sentences.

Tough choice: Give Donald Trump and national Republicans more power or allow apartment buildings in your neighborhood.

Denying healthcare is bad, as is shooting people in the back. Why is everyone such a weirdo online?

I'm not sure that anesthesiologist care improves when they are paid $500K a year instead of $400K.
comment in response to
post
They do deny care that they feel is not worth it and that's why they're so hated. They just seem to have bad judgment on which care is expendable.

Can you explain how the modeling is done to estimate the housing? Assumptions on housing prices?

If eliminating placards was such a winning issue they wouldn't exist. It's a classic case of concentrated benefits and diffuse costs making it difficult to eliminate a bad practice.

Everyone protects their turf. Picking a battle with identifiable losers and vague benefits won't get anyone elected.

Are you really asking the man to start his campaign by antagonizing hundreds of thousands of teachers?

Inflation was the biggest issue in the election. What are you talking about?

Are you ok?

At one point when evolution was a hot button topic, I believed that belief in evolution was undercounted as people signaled their allegiance to religion when asked by pollsters. But after years of evolution being out of the cultural spotlight it seems most people are just skeptical.

Do you know if projects like this are paired with underground parking or if they are eliminating the spaces?

It seems funny to use the historic photo when the change was just a few years ago: 2019 v 2023.

It doesn't look like there's much penalty at all, she was seen as more moderate than Biden.
comment in response to

A problem created by Biden, not Kamala, really. If he hadn't twiddled his thumbs for years as his two biggest weaknesses festered Democrats could have run on "four more years".

It's not "right wing" to object to higher prices. It's not "right wing" to observe that asylum law was being abused and it's nonsensical to have people waiting around on public funds for years as their cases get resolved.

You think it was Kamala's campaign that caused people to vote against her and not the thing they said they voted against: inflation and the border?
comment in response to
post
Enough voters disagree with that to make the difference. It's clear that Biden's apathy about inflation and the border doomed Harris, though I think there are numerous reasons that the working class has drifted away from Democrats.
