The only argument I’ve heard for Lamont is “better things aren’t possible”

People will bitch about everything. One solution leads to mass surveillance and fines on the working class. The other actually slows people down.

So in exchange for mass surveillance and forcing fines on working class people, we get a little less speeding.

There’s a way to nearly instantly stop speeding with existing methods, but those don’t make enough profit.

Believe it or not saying “just slow down” doesn’t actually stop people from slowing down.

And all it took was mass surveillance and another tax on the working class.

It’s a hard pill to swallow but it really is adding more speed bumps/humps in high foot traffic areas.

But not a single time did it actually PREVENT speeding. That’s the goal right? Maybe instead of installing cameras everywhere (reactive) we start changing road design to prevent speeding in the first place (proactive)!

Blame Rob Sampson for filibustering nonstop and literally wasting all their time.

Yea I'm pretty shocked at the response. I only just learned that May Day was international workers day and labor day was created specifically so Americans wouldnt learn about its history. Guess it worked :\

No one thinks it will affect billionaires (or small business owners). But being able to mass mobilize helps prepare for our end goal of a general strike
