Not to mention this is essentially the same line of reasoning Repubs keep using to make voting worse for everyone. Can't give out water in line to vote because you might be "buying votes", so you gotta wait in line 6 hours in the hot sun if you're in a poor district.
But hey, totally cool when it's ol Musky doin it for cash not for health!
Well that's just nifty. Thanks for letting me know!
That is a fun fact! What's the difference?

No point in getting a little spicy when you're the one out of place - "when in Rome", yeah?

Both. 1980s Era civil/traffic engineers in NA were all trained for car=future=build road. Nowadays most traffic engineering/city planning schools teach multimodal transportation as The Way, but decades of car washing our cities has resulted in an almost total collapse of public support for anything except another lane. Luckily, most people sub-30 are aware of this and are slowly becoming politically active. Public opinion will shift slowly over the next decade or two and eventually the traffic engineers will be allowed to do the right thing.
Most of the EU has missed the target GDP spend by a significant margin for decades. The failure to penalize the annexation of Crimea and the EU's almost wholesale inability to provide material to Ukraine without compromising their own defensive postures can be traced heavily to this funding failure.
Obama's soft stance on Russia was certainly a large part of our current situation, but Merkel and the overly pacified EU were major contributors as well.
My sisters tongue swells up pretty badly if she has any mustard. Validated it with ground mustard seed. I had never heard of it either before that, but we did some googling and it's a thing.
