Like most of their arguments it will be targeted at able-bodied middle class and up white men aged 25-65 with driver's licenses and decent cars.

I'm sure graduate student enrollment at most Ivies is through the roof in that same time period. Grad school is a pure cash cow for most schools since a high graduate acceptance rate doesn't hurt schools' reputations and they use little in the way of facilities. I went from using every building (except the healthcare one) in college to 4 buildings for my first Master's then only 2 buildings for my second -- one for food and one for class.

Transportation and good cities are actually a part of the Mormon religion. About the only religion I can think of that even thinks about that kind of stuff.

Why are we blasting these fixing broken stuff guys with super high federal, state and city wage rates when they didn't even know they would be making so much all of a sudden? This money should be coming from billionaires that hate trains.

What are property taxes in Nevada like? People tend to ignore high property taxes while being laser focused on income taxes. Especially people from Ohio which doesn't have property tax on things like cars and boats unlike Kentucky and West Virginia while having extremely high property taxes on housing. Especially in Franklin County which has grown out of control despite insane property taxes. Like literally no one knows that the Cincinnati city property tax rollback existed from 2000 to 2023 except you, landlords, developers and people in city government. $100,000 gone for the average homeowner in that time that everyone else in other cities paid but who cares since radio hosts and Podcasters can't stop hammering federal wage taxes for guys who fix broken stuff who went from making $50k in the 90s to making $160k today.

I don't remember Columbus having Kash N' Karry. I do remember the Kohl's being a Gold Circle.

So I'm giving up my built local customer base and starting over because of taxation? Am I a sadist? have you heard how much you can save in taxes with an annuity instead of index funds

I hear a lot of businesses in Ohio are moving to Portsmouth to get their taxes down

But Cincinnatians are nuts about Indy -- especially the downtown.

These older big-box store sites with parking lots are so colossal that there is indeed room. People don't idly shop because they are bored all the time like they did before the internet and video games so parking lots don't have to be as big as they used to be.

I can't be the only one who thinks this looks like a pig in a top hat. At least in this context

A lot more dead mall buildings are avoiding demo due to today's construction, demolition and materials disposal costs as compared to say 2005 when those were much lower. If Britney could survive 2007...

If someone is in a hurry to get through I would suggest 4th or Summit. Columbus has plenty of roads meant to speed people through town where as the Short North is meant to be driven to. Columbus has an enormous amount of places to be driven through and needs more that are meant to be gone to.

From a pedestrian standpoint the cars perked on the street act as protection from out-of-control vehicles.

Great job '50s. Everything single story. Looks like old schools that have already mostly been torn down.

I plan to be there.

Shut the door, Faith No More? Might be in over my head here

Maybe he's funded by the regular movie industry that wants us to go back to the days when if you wanted to see a boob you had to go to an R-Rated movie. So they had boobs every 5 minutes

The consequences for this year's Michigan loss were especially dire.

Zero inflation means zero growth. There was little growth in the economy under the borderline ZIRP and extra low inflation of 2002 to 2020. What did grow massively in that time was the stock market.

I am wrapping up the second bathroom refurb due to wear and tear I have done in a year. Both look the same as they did when they were last redone in the 1990s. HGTV would lose its mind! It doesn't help that they are still coasting on the same flipping content that they made in the late 2000s/early 2010s and its outdated economics of "just rip out the '60s stuff and paint everything gray then count the money".

Yeah back in the '90s every industry was saying they'd continue to grow and that they would always be needing new people coming in. The blue collar jobs were telling the truth but the white collar ones were lying (even if they didn't know it). They wanted to make sure that they would always have a pool of suitable workers. This was the first time the blue collar ones had talked like that in quite some time since their reputation for layoffs had gotten so bad starting in the late 1960s.

A lot of people are the thought equivalent of single-issue voters.

There's always Jacksonville Florida

Does this Canyon Road really have an canyon on it?
