How long did it take for the news media to call Trump's " misstatements, untruths, and out of context sarcastic joke-s" ... LIES! Target communities (racial-ethnic, LGBTQ+, feminists, etc.) have been derided and labeled hysterical when we have called discrimnatory acts racist, sexist, homophobic.

Been to all 3. They use trains/subways. Amsterdam's population of the metro area is under a million, only with their outlying areas/suburbs approx 2.5 mil. Your best model is Bogota, Colombia, but they started their planning from the point of not even having a city metro line.

Add today's Guardian article to my last reply.

To keep adding to cities would be akin to the living conditions of Mexico City (17 mil pop), Hong Kong, or Mumbai. It would add to the already stressed congestion, utility services, air pollution, public service maintenance, overcrowded schools, and taxes. Large cities exacerbate poverty and crime.

Need new glasses to catch autocorrect. "Zappos," not "Rapport." sorry, again.

BTW, thanks for reading and your valid point.

So, in that
case, should we strive to become Mexico City, Tokyo, Mumbai? Building environmentally and well planned new suburbs with fast bullet trains to the big city's jobs, culture, and abundant amenities creates new jobs as well... think fossil- free energy plants and smart water planning.

Ooops, I meant, "business," not auto-corrected, "businews" on my post. SORRY.

Major cities are full and/or financially impossible and logistically impractical to tear down and rebuild. Suburbia is just that, single home dwellings for city refugees. The answer is to build new suburbs with modular single homes and quadruplexes with a shared backyard and a mass transit system.

Today they are mega business vocational schools. Gone are the liberal arts. That's why 2 generations of post WWII have little to no concepts of history. So here we are again fighting Hitlarian fascism. Our people are just like the Germans who blindly followed a mad man rather than think critically.

So, he owes us money. Thanks for the info.

Can't find a single word about this on Google nor on local "news" either. Is it still going on ( 8/7, 5:54 pm EST. )

Time to interview Terry Moran on his act of "Good Trouble."

Oh so sad! Where's the courage you say we're honoring today? ? While some students fast and others go to jail, you stand for 24+hrs.; now in retrospect, for a prez bid, and then stage soft show "sit in"on the steps. Where are the reps getting JAILED on Moral Mondays on your rotunda w/ Rev. Barber?

When are we going to learn the difference between "less" and "fewer?" For that matter, when did we decide "do" should replace actual corresponding verbs? I learned proper English as a child from watching W. Cronkite, it's particularly rankling to read and hear journalists misuse their job tools.

"Pro-life" before actually alive, but screwed once born, is their motto. He'll ain't hot enough for these so-called Xristians. These war-outfitted macho dudes are lacking real man/human-hood. Show your faces, this ain't Russia...yet.
