[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That this 3rd world solution is being discussed in one of the wealthiest counties in the US makes me so angry I can barely see straight.[/quote]

I hear you.  It is inconceivable, in a county that has the budget Arlington has.  Such a lack of planning, vision, and foresight.   Such squandering of taxpayers' money for vanity projects just a few years ago (and continuing through last year), when they KNEW the numbers.

Seriously, Arlington Co. is still dominated by aging boomers who want nothing more than to be a way station for upwardly mobile college grads. Planning is f'n easy when you have a transient population of well off people on prime real estate. It's hard when resources get stretched and push comes to shove. Families require services and parents make noise. So the thinking is, build that lazy river for the grannies and let the schools deteriorate and voila, problem solved. The reason we're in this mess is that a mess is the point.[/quote]
