From 'bidirectional' above : It should be noted that the 'staying out of politics' is a public phenomenon. In her weekly meeting with the Prime Minister, The Queen makes her political stance well known (that

By and large, if you desire tasteful things, there are heaps of sites offering forums for your kind of discussion. They come with nice gatekeepers too, as long you do not step on toes. What there are too little of, are venues for discussio

Whether a tech-savvy person can run boolean searches on 5 different search engines ( that may not even be English-first engines ) and then find a "Daily Stormer" or two is not the point here - youre either missing the point entire

The cities you list are not exactly diverse economic powerhouses in the same way even Houston is. A comparison of the "GDPs" of those cities would show that much. Also no one wants to walk through blighted or a high crime neighbor

There's also this assumption that people in relatively segregated rich areas want to be connected to poorer areas via public transit - the opposite is more often true. People who wish to live in neighborhoods with low crime often NIMBY

Entirely removed from the merits and demerits of Taibbi's treatment of the topic at hand, I shudder at your unqualified praise of the man. Without so much as a single source to buttress your point or to qualify how you arrived at that

I dont know how they pulled off the Wild Oats [1] [2] acquisition years ago - or if things were just as bad back then, because I didn't shop at Whole Foods in those years. But I wish we had a greater array of upmarket or upmarket-adjac

Restaurants employ ~10% of working Americans. A lot of people are going to lose jobs. No one disputes that. Although that 10% figure needs corroboration. As other comments have pointed out restaurants have switched to take-out and
