I grew up in Arlington. It is the 50th most populated city in the United States, and it is the city with the highest population that still doesn't have public transportation. The boomers have voted it down for decades because they wanted to keep it a nice suburb, and they thought buses would bring drug problems. Surprise, motherfuckers, Arlington has a drug problem now anyhow. Let people have their fucking buses.
This is an american classic that wasted generations of wealth on stupid idea to keep lead imprisoned boomers happy.
