There is transit as a generic thing, and there is transit as someone's hobbyhorse. Don't equate the two.


Republicans are cutting transit, ostensibly to save costs and not as urban-DFL hating. Ostensibly.

But all transit is not equal; compare here and here.

Put another way, many have had the quote attributed to them that consistency is the hob-goblin of petty minds. We in Anoka County are fortunate to have conservatives not troubled by consistency, nor by socializing land speculation. That's a real plus for us, in Anoka County. No petty mind consistency troubling us.

An easy answer on the Ramsey Northstar stop.

Don't build a thing after much money's been spent, call it a "success" on Facebook, and move on.

It's been done.
