Save $1 billion, return Light Rail to the 1958 I-5 Bridge, enables ground-level stations.
IBR stations will be ridiculously 40 to 75 feet high with unreliable piss-scented elevators.

Put traffic in an Immersed Tunnel and bikes & pedestrians on a reused 1917 I-5 Bridge

Communism is when individuals have the right to choose what kind of house to build on their own property.

Free market capitalism is when the government can highly regulate and force options onto private property.

Got it.

“We’re living in the largest wealth transfer from young people to seniors in history.”

Must watch on how America is waging a war on young people.

This is something I think about a lot.

I spend FAR less time shuttling my kids around bc everything we need is very close to our home (daycare, school, groceries, library, doctor, etc).

As the kids get older, they’ll be able to walk, bike & take transit solo.

We have two important votes to cast to shore up our community’s infrastructure without raising existing taxes. These measures maintain investments in schools and roads - while we need to do more - but are vital for our city. YES to Fix Our Streets Portland: Yes on Measure 26-209! & YES to renew the Teachers Levy!

Mother’s Day is Sunday, so I was card-shopping this morning and came across this turd.

Car dependence doesn’t just rob children of their independence, it also imposes massive physical, financial, and psychological costs on primary caregivers.
