25% of every dollar you pay in gas tax is used to subsidize things like public transportation and bike paths.
Thanks to your generosity, the youth of America are able to travel outside of their own neighborhoods. You can be proud that your tax money is bringing much needed diversity to this mall.

There is a reason why ultra upscale communities like Atherton do not have a BART station...
This is actually an important story. This is public disorder in some of the most expensive retail space in the Bay area.

But it won’t be for long, if they can’t get this under control.
The depreciation crisis of the wealthy progressive urban enclaves has begun.
Just noticed that. A couple of years ago there were no bike paths/sidewalks here. Nice neighborhood, rural, thinly populated, leave-your-doors unlocked kind of neighborhood. Down a mile or two close to a building materials warehouse there was a nice trailer parked in the shade, but no tractor was parked with it. Presumably it is used for storage.
Then some idiot got funding and they built loopy wandering sidewalks along the highway here.
This year after the sidewalks were finished there still doesn’t appear to be much use of them during normal hours...
But I noticed this week that some vandals found the nice trailer irresistible and they spray painted ugly unreadable graffiti on it. We’ve never had graffiti around here.
