Can I tell you guys a secret? I’m not a fan of my neighbor so I search “personal injury atlanta” and click on his sponsored link a couple times a week.
@Vinncent I mean, it was Bush, Obama, Trump, and Biden, really. But yes, Biden fucked up pretty bad (IMO not prosecuting trump quickly enough is the biggest failure)
@dancerTrot@2AvSagas I'm all for trying to think of unintended negative consequences. But garages are seriously one of the worst possible uses of space in terms of economic activity.
@dancerTrot@2AvSagas If a garage business shuts down, it will create space for housing and other businesses. Most garages operate on a skeleton crew of just a few employees, so if there were like, two retail places and two restaurants, with housing on upper floors, that's going to net way more jobs.
@JHWeissmann I think Harris’s campaign made the first big mistake when they (for inscrutable reasons) dropped the “they’re weird freaks” language about republicans and retreated into mealy-mouthed technocratic book reports
@JHWeissmann I think elected democrats, the pundit class, and consultant class are all very confused. The answer isn’t to be republican lite, it’s to show normal people that you believe in something and are willing to fight for it
