I think the best argument that I have read so far is the fact that we are cutting back on our teachers, firemen, and police, yet our wonderful local politicians somehow manage to “find” the money to build a useless extension of the Crosstown. And if that isn’t enough, the quality of the road construction is ridiculous. Drive the Crosstown sometime. You pay ridiculous fees to drive on some of the roughest, uneven roadway known to mankind. Oh yeah, then there is always that pleasant thought of the upper deck sinking or collapsing (flashback to the Crosstown construction). This is just another attempt to create an atmosphere and appearance like some big city, while totally ignoring the important issues that really should be addressed, like police, firemen and education. But then most of the old fogies deciding these matters don’t have kids in this pathetic education system or they have enough money to send them to a “better” school somewhere. Take care of the basics first, then if there is anything left over, go out and play in your sandboxes creating pretty little sculptures and overpasses and sidewalks leading to nowhere.
