I’m really happy we secured the funding, but I really hope at least some of it goes towards building transit-oriented development around the new stations.
Many of the renders CTA have put out depict stations in lifeless neighborhoods that are mostly 4-lanr stroads and parking lots, which would really sap much of the potential value this project could provide.
Are these not different words for the same fundamental concepts?
I fail to see how “the state” and “capitalism” aren’t just a more developed form of “structures” and “agreements”. And if the community decides punishment is an appropriate response to breaking an “agreement”, how is that any different from “coercive control”?
And if you’re community gets large enough (say even like a couple hundred people), how are any decisions gonna get made even remotely efficiently?
Feel like you’re a hop skip and a jump from a representative democracy. And as soon as bartering becomes too inconvenient, I’m sure a new “agreement” still be made to use some proxy as a form of current and boom now you’ve got capitalism too.
