Florida on traffic jams: fuck you

This is sure to spur economic development.

Faced with ever-increasing traffic jams, South Florida's public officials have come up with a plan: Make it worse.

Instead of fixing the problem, government officials are deliberately adding to it in hopes we'll all walk, ride the bus or take the train.

"Until you make it so painful that people want to come out of their cars, they're not going to come out of their cars," Anne Castro, chair of the Broward County Planning Council, said during a meeting last year. "We're going to make them suffer first, and then we're going to figure out ways to move them after that because they're going to scream at us to help them move."

I don't even know how to respond to that level of stupidity.

There was a quote in the article about millennials graduating college with a chip on their shoulders about people owning personal cars, and this is a result. Gridlock activism.

It's Florida. Until they put an air conditioning bubble over the entire state and kill all the mosquito no one is getting out of their cars.

Good plan. Pretend the millennials are in charge of the government instead of all the old fucks who actually vote.

You should contact the person who said it and let them know that.
