In every level of government we need to start investing in working people more and businesses and the rich less.

PSA: The recipe for economic growth isn’t tax cuts for the rich. It’s investment in our people — in health care, infrastructure and education — to build a strong middle class. You don't grow the economy through trickle-down nonsense.

All these candidates (yes including Harris) would only be soulless neoliberals who kept up the status quo without brining in any REAL change.

The same aid said this too “I want somebody who can run the country. I want somebody who is competent. I love Rahm Emanuel, Gavin Newsom. I like Pete Buttigieg," so I’m not sure if he should really get a voice in the matter.

One of the most successful pedestrian streets in the world, the Strøget in Copenhagen, was filled with cars until a 2 year pedestrianization pilot project in 1962. The opposition argued “no cars means no business,” but the street has been a massive retail success, the city’s busiest shopping street.
A portion of the Strøget street in central Copenhagen, Denmark, that widens out into a central “square” that often gets used for events or markets.

This is GREAT reporting and the city and others should really consider it when it comes to revenue, growth, and fair taxes!!

What would a land value tax mean for Cincinnati residents?
The report says increasing property taxes on land and decreasing taxes on buildings would save homeowners money while bringing in the same amount of revenue for the city.

These two candidates are very promising. Two progressive and working class focused dem who are willing to stick it to the establishment in order to do better. For those in Arizona and Florida, let’s get them in!

A strong economy isn't one where a handful of people become unimaginably wealthy. It's one where everyone can afford a home, put food on the table, and build a future. That's what economic success actually looks like.

Trump's attack on trains taught me a lot about Americans
And spoke with those who want to invoke the 25th Amendment.

Cycling infrastructure is cost of living infrastructure, even for people who already don’t own a car - Can use a cheaper, lower maintenance bike (speed not needed) - Good storage = less maintenance - Cheap accessories (no helmet needed, cheap lights) - No specialist clothing - Bus and train fares

I’m in Michigan City Indiana Right now for vacation. It’s delightful. Everyone either walks, bikes, or takes a golf cart. The main road along the beach is multi modal and shared by all forms of transportation.

“Air pollution fell substantially as Paris restricted car traffic and made way for parks, people-streets and bike-lanes.” Better for the climate, better for health, better for livability and quality of life. Common sense. Such a no-brainer, it’s remarkable that more cities HAVEN’T done the same.

Paris said au revoir to cars. Air pollution maps reveal a dramatic change.

I don’t know man, who is “the Democratic Party” if it’s not the voters?Democratic voters choose candidates, not party leaders. And party leaders need to listen to what voters are telling us - and right now they are demanding our party be bolder.

"Far left" positions: - Transit should be fast, functional and maybe even free. - Everyone has a right to healthcare, childcare, housing, and food. - Collective punishment and genocide are bad, actually. To quote @olufemiotaiwo.bsky.social, I do not regret to inform you that we are going to win.

We could build nothing but walkable urbanism for a decade, and zero new car-oriented sprawl, and at the end of that decade there still would not be enough walkable urban places in the US for every American who prefers to live in one to do so.

The greenest thing cities and local governments can do is build up and not out. Oh and expand multimodal transportation is a close second.

“It’s just burning. I just wanted to try to keep people safe.” ICE fired pepper spray at Senator Andy Kim and protesters outside a detention facility in New Jersey. Not another penny should go to these out-of-control agencies — and when we regain power, we will hold all of these thugs accountable.

With all of the high gas prices there is really only one thing local/ state government should be doing: funding transit and increasing density. If we make transit a truly viable means of transportation then not only will it make traffic better, but will also reduce the demand for gas.

Just went to Waffle House for the first time. Those workers work too Damm hard to be making sub minimum wage. Especially when the executives make millions off those hard workers work.
