Hey racist fuck, maybe try waking him up before unloading a clip into his face, huh?

Spoilers, naturally.

At some point we need to reconcile that people are terrible yet you can still enjoy their work.

No. This man is waging a war on private auto ownership.

You can stuff as much bike Lanes as you want, but no one will use them in bad weather, can work in cities with nice weather most of the year, not NYC. 

LOL all any of this will do is make traffic 1,000x worse in NYC

His idea to kill the BQE's connection by Brooklyn Heights is batshit crazy though

So another Socialist with limited knowledge of cars … fun.

You know what would help, removing the idiotic bike lanes, allowing car traffic and turns on all streets and at all possible turns. In other words setting it back where it was fifteen years ago. I spent a lot of time as a delivery driver in Manhattan and Brooklyn, and the more government intervention, the worse moving

Because they’re the largest economy in the nation?

He joined Jalopnik and his first article was to praise the end of cars in NYC, wow, balsy.

The problem with the city streets is primarily Uber/Lyft and the expansion of bus and bike lanes. I like the bus lanes since I prefer to take the bus to work instead of the subway. But with hundreds of thousands of new for hire cars parking every where and clogging the streets, it sucks getting around New York.

NY: Funding the entire fucking nation for nearly 400 years.

Those 20,000 jobs were not for local residents. “Hi there! We’re going to wipe out your neighborhoods, block traffic in one of the most congested areas in America, build a huge plant and re-route some local streets. Oh, by the way, those streets are too narrow, so we’ll be tearing down some apartment buildings so

NYC Expat here. Was listening to a local Los Angeles radio show this afternoon (KFI 640AM)talking about this today and the radio clowns were saying “Have you been to LIC? It’s a complete dump. Nobody wants to live there”, Clearly they’re totally out of touch with the fact that there’s a sh**-load of new construction

I agree with everyone shouting about corporate welfare but I think these events point out something even bigger. The outrage was just as much over the fact that these arrangements were made behind the backs of the people of NYC. Maybe we’d be okay with giving away billions if we actually got something in return and

I’m so proud of New York right now. So damn proud. How are billions of dollars in tax cuts to Amazon from New Yorkers worth 25,000 (questionable number) jobs that probably won’t go to New Yorkers while exacerbating an already untenable housing situation? Fuck outta here b

“Why are you protesting this?”

What I don’t get is why more people aren’t up in arms about giving out these huge breaks to the richest corporations on the planet, then we wonder why taxes on the small guy go up or don’t go down. Why don’t we make them pay their fair share? It just floors me. Unless its small business, no large company deserves

This is also hopefully the last nail in the coffin for the BQX. Let’s see what excuse they use now to try to keep that needless project alive.
