I wonder if the CPM can be bought out of the deal if bus/bikes lanes are so precious. And today's environment may be more conducive to such deals. Maybe CPM has some payments due in other parts of it business and City of Chicago c

The city would then have to pay out of their pocket for the revenue miss due to not collecting parking on that "entire street bus only". the guaranteed payments are the crux of the matter. (Not that I feel sorry for the city of Ch

There are taxes on land - at least in Seattle they are part of the property taxes (according to the stub King County sends me every year). But I guess it is not properly enough for you... I am guessing is too low for your probably....

That was my impression when I travelled in Moscow. Every where I looked there was a kiosk selling beer and little bottles of vodka - along with some tasty cold cuts. It was pretty hard not to stop by and get one of these little bottles of

Seattle hits you with the "Amazon" tax [1]. Which negates some of these tax breaks. This tax applies to all sorts of businesses - it applies to the mid-company my wife works for. [1] https://www.cnbc.com/2020/

Student loan is very different from most (all?) other types of debt - the collateral is inside the debtor's head. In other types of loans creditors can put a lien on some type of property - cars, houses, business, etc... For student lo

For home prices to deflate people would have to sell at lower prices - in some cases below their home equity. In these cases sellers would have to basically pay the bank the difference. Given how affordable 3% rates are, I think people woul

You are missing the point. (So I will spell it out for you: consumers have more power than your comments indicate).

You don't have to use bad words. But since you brought it up - here is a recent lesson. Consumers do not like touch screens and it seems car makers are listening: https://slate.com/business/2023/04/cars-b

Peak humanity in this thread:) The trade-offs are driving a Mercedes at 250 km/h vs 295 km/h; or some Apple camera with three lenses vs one lens. I am so glad I live in a country where I have to make these choices.
