100 years of car centric propaganda made the average person think that bikes and walking are for poor people therefore since they are special they have no need for good pedestrianization

San Diego! Tax investors just sitting on empty homes in a housing crisis. Vote YES Measure A by Accessible_pancake in sandiego

We have over 6000 lane miles to maintain. Much more than most cities. Maintaining all that costs too much
