ScrubblesSure sure sure, but did the government make any profit from doing this?

AzuranAuroraBut it was the sound of that specific pothole! How else am I gonna know which pothole is which? Please send help, I’ve been lost in traffic for 4 hours!
Suspension and tire shops across NYC are sobbing
There’s a corner gas episode where the small town gets upset after a pothole is filled because it helps reduce the speed of traffic and a speed bump is too fancy
fallaciousBasisThe movie blew my fucking mind…
They were a couple a whole time? 🤣🤣
Cops need loving, too.
it’s been over a decade since I’ve seen any of that show and I can picture a whole bunch of scenes from that episode in my head
not because I actually remember them, just because the characters and plot are that identifiable
good show
if this about cars, only the most libertarian would question, if we’re talking about trains tho…
NotSteve_Car infrastructure doesn’t need to make a profit don’t you know? Its just public transport that needs be a net gain for the city
Ah, you must be one of those people that needs posts to end in “/s” to get the joke.
Haha I think you might be the person who needs the /s. I was just continuing the sarcasm but making an adjacent sarcastic point

BananaI know you’re joking, but it is so depressing that this is EXACTLY how so many government officials think and how so many constituents have been brainwashed to think.
and, equally if not more depressingly, governments can make waaay more money by TAXING THE FUCKING RICH!
The typical conservative response to that is “but then they’ll take their businesses elsewhere and now you get nothing.”
The typical conservative response also fails to even consider just how difficult, expensive, and risky it is to move a large business to an entirely new region. Real estate has to be purchased and sold, employees have to be relocated or replaced, logistics have to be established in the new region, valuable business connections and contracts will have to be severed, and for brick and mortar businesses, the competitive landscape will be different.
Also, New York is a market of 5+ million people. They won’t ignore that because of high taxes.
