#Pedestrian fatalities have risen 83% from a low in 2009. Bigger, heavier #SUV s & distraction play a part.

The largest factor is night-time speed on urban arterial routes, common in older, socially #deprived, multifamily housing & "arts/entertainment/food/accommodations" #neighborhoods, disproportionately affecting less #affluent people.

#Cars are prioritized over #walkers & #cyclists, with a lack of sidewalks & crossings on wide roads with retail locations.

#Giving Away #Money Is #Good for You

Excess #wealth is associated with lower #empathy, #addiction and even #unhappiness. Among #affluent young people, a #radical movement of extreme #generosity is on the rise.

Advancing #technology was sold to us under the idea that it would lift everyone out of #drudgery, but as we can all plainly see, it was only ever intended to elevate a select #elite and reduce the rest of us to drudges to serve the #ruling and #affluent #monopoly #ownership classes, their mandarins, and their machines.

America is now a #ThirdWorld #colonial extraction #economy. The sun will always set on any #empire, given enough time and enough #weapons in the hands of the colonized.
