No public transportation.....On welfare......can't own a car.....can't get to a job.....job can't get to you....???????
So, taxpayers have to spend 800 million dollars to build a railroad so people on welfare who cannot own cars can get to their jobs or have their jobs come to them?
Jesse Jackson does Joe Biden in black.
I lived on LaFayette and Summit, right above the Lake Park, and worked in the way west side. I never had to wait more than ten minutes for a bus. One fee, two transfers, very efficient system. Lotsa people rode the bus back then.
Jesse Jackson wants to enslave Wisconsin.
I rode Milwaukee down through the same decades and left in the 90's. The reason Milwaukee is so poor is the Progressive Movement.
Progressives built an elaborate system of worker protection and welfare benefits, funded by taxes on factories. For the next 50 years, society's takers and grifters moved in and the factories and productive people moved out.
Welfare Queens can't be expected to ride a bus - they need high speed rail - with butlers serving tea... are you a racist or what? /s
Nobody is segregating the blacks but themselves. How stupid can they get? Damn dumb.
” unite Milwaukee and Madison and Chicago”
And just how many people are going to live in Milwaukee, and commute to Madison or Chicago to work?
It's not like many welfare recipients are going to get jobs as web developers or neurosurgeons. The jobs they will get will be in food service, cleaning etc. Which means that all they need is a person in the neighborhood who has a car, who drives to where there are jobs, and is willing to accept people to car-pool with him for gas money. With the price of gas these days, low-income commuters should be VERY interested in having people willing to ride with them in exchange for gas.
As one who grew up in Milwaukee I can attest that Milwaukee county has one of the finest public transportation systems in the country. There is NOT a place you can’t get to by bus. This is pure horse pucky.
The moose from the elk ???
I will not miss Jessie when he leaves this Earth.
One could also describe it as a battle pitting 7+ million public-sector union members against 97+ million private-sector non-union taxpayers over how the taxes from the 97 million are spent or wasted.
Je$$e Hi-Jack$on to the Re$cue!!
I don’t hate liberals and democRats. I hate what they stand for.
Milwaukee became the poorest and most segregated city BECAUSE white people moved out.
White people moved out to get away from black crime and black values. Milwaukee didn't fail because there was a lack of trains. Truth can be painful - but it's the only starting point for real change. Watch how people vote with their feet - that's the underlying truth... of neighborhoods, restaurants, news outlets, computers, etc... Jesse's brain is going soft.
Jackson's lucky he's telling 'the press'. No one else would buy his line...
He should be... no; I’m not saying it.
Jesse, take off your black glasses and take a peak at the real world!
Rainbow something, wasn’t/isn’t it?
Everything coming out of that racist, blackmailing, criminal, corrupt, lowlife dirtbag’s mouth, was/is/will be. He’s totally incapable of the truth.
