And yet, they're absolutely critical for keeping public transportation networks (read: roads, highways, trains and busses) functional and operational. The big reason they want this toll gone is because it'll re-cripple NYC, a """liberal stronghold""" (read: major population center in a blue state) they've always hated.

Those egg prices will come down AAAAAAAANYYYY day now...
This venn diagram is suspiciously shaped like a circle...
What's the difference?
One day, we WILL wake up to his obituary.
Objectively false. Canadian beer, especially from BC, is some of the best on the planet.
Damn dude, that's fucked. I loved going to WV for summer camps as a kid, the wilderness in that state is incredible, but you're absolutely right about the church density and lack of infrastructure.
Every time I pass through that state, it's always small Americana towns loaded with beautiful architecture and small businesses on the verge of collapse, while the town churches look like new. It's a truly baffling phenomenon until you recognize that Churches provide a lot of the social structure and safety nets for people there.
And while a lot of their issues can be traced back to the coal-dependence of the state, a lot of it can be traced to regional policy that just left the state behind. WV isn't near dead last in the nation in every category because it wants to be, but damn it all if they aren't doing anything that could help change that. Louisiana is like that too; dead last in everything, with so much squandered potential.
I relate to this so hard. Like, I wasn't asking you if I could go. I've booked it, I've given you notice, if you are still blindsided when I'm gone, that's on you.
Is this Loss?
You got it, Champ.
Honestly, if it weren't for the fact that Trumpers would gladly destroy their own lives to see me and mine dead (Queer folk), I'd feel somewhat bad for them too. However, they've shown time and again that they want us dead for the pettiest and most made up reasons, so I'll feel nothing but contempt for them as they burn. As for everyone else... for them, I will weep openly, as they do not deserve this fresh Hell.
