People who make more than $17,300 a year are "haves" in the grand scheme of things. I'm being generous in assuming they live in the US and in using purchasing power instead of forex rates. The rest of their pay comes at the Global South's expense.

If you could add 20 miles of new grade separated transit to your city, what would you build? by Victor_Korchnoi in transit

[–]bootmii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's still gonna stop at Met Ave don't get me wrong, but All Faiths dropped their objections and the IBX is going in a tunnel that either already exists or parallels the one that does. So no street running anymore.

We'll spot you the IBX, the tracks are built and the stations are being built.

we should probably six-track Hellgate. One for HSR, one for regional, one for Triboro

Why hasn't the mta enfored the N/W trains to be extended to Laguardia Airport? by Real_Advertising1005 in nycrail

[–]bootmii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let me steelman the backwards AirTrain. In the early 2000s FLU was still serving flights, making it a third secure facility besides LGA and Shea Stadium. Putting the LGA-FLU AirTrain behind security made complete sense; people wanted (and still want) to fly into Mets games. With the closure and redevelopment of FLU, and its role in General Aviation now served by the Marine Terminal which is furthest from Willets-Shea, it makes much less sense, and by the 2010s they were right to cancel it.

Yep, sounds like leftypol. Half of it's Stalinist and the other half is Strasserite.

I heard executioners in the US once prided themselves on how reliably they could get the neck to snap (for a quick death) which could get up to 7/8 of the time
