#5. That is why most Democrats are politicians, not small businessmen. They would be failures the first day because their poorly designed and mounted doors wouldn’t open for business.
#8. Designed by Comrades Bernie Sanders and Liz Warren. Put together by Pete the B, Bloomberg the architect, and the work crew led by Lunch Bucket Joe.
Give it about a week. One strong wind and you’ll have chop sueyed patients.
To self re previous post. Spellcheck didn’t work.
Re the ArtScape fiasco, the line should have read as “”which are NOW basically closed”.
Last paragraph should have read “cost too damned much”, not “cost too damaged much”. My fault on that one.
Did McAuliffe award the contract to a Podesta?
Falls Church and Northern Virginia, bastion of libtardness.....when are mofos going to wake up to how libtard policies DO NOT work?
Wait, my bad, just throw more money at it...$3.8 mil on TWO bike racks, like wtf?!
The only solution to this is raise taxes for more funds. /Democrat
You forgot to mention the Silver Springs transit center connected to the Metro station. That was deemed as a construction failure and at some point, they were discussing the idea of tearing it down completely because it could not bear the weight of buses pulling in.
There’s nothing that Metro in DC, Maryland or Virginia has done since 2000...that has shown any mature planning.
Graft. Just plain pure Graft. There is no other logical explanation.
Is anyone going to audit the spending on this?
Why? The purpose of government spending is spending, meaning this bike rack project is becoming ever more successful.
“Don’t kill the job”.
We used to build small cities out west in matter of days.
As I always say, the Metro system is a jobs program. The fact that it also provides transportation is simply a by-product.
Five years! For a bike rack?! The Golden Gate Bridge and the Empire State Building were completed in less time. Combined!

Corrupt and incompetent.
The “Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority”—what could go wrong?
Oversight by massive bureaucracy, and socialist Democrats want more of the same.
“Affirmative action” likely at work in the selection of these contractors.
We tried the bike thing in my hometown. They were all stolen. So now they’ve upgraded and added more. What could possibly go wrong?
