"Four billion dollars for four miles that doesn't add that much to ridership, what is that about," reads to me like an absolutely insane take, so I'm wondering if I'm missing something. Does this person not understand how much more growth West Seattle could see if it's more connected with the other population centers? Were they also upset with all of the money spent on the bridge?

The bridge is for cars, ya pinko, but I can't drive my pickup truck onto the Link, so why build it?
