[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Arlington can absolutely build up, and put garages underground and pools on roofs and all the other things that make an urban school acceptable and equal. It costs a fortune WHICH WE HAVE. We fvcking have a fvcking fortune. We’re a very wealthy county. But that would mean that the aquatic center doesn’t happen. I’m not super clear on how bond capacity works, but we haven’t built that stupid thing yet. The horse is not out of the barn. We could eliminate that and free up space in our borrowing for a 4th comprehensive high school that would have a pool. John Vihstadt needs to run on that. We could take the millions in the affordable housing fund and put it toward another elementary school. We have money, but our priorities are all out of whack. AND DONT BLAME FAMILES FOR MOVING TO ARLINGTON. As a county we’ve done everything in our power to stick it to Fairfax and elsewhere when it comes to moving people efficiently into DC. We wasted (another) fortune fighting 395 hot lanes- a battle we lost. 66 is another mess partially of our own making. We cancelled the street car- lots of people were against it, because it would serve ffx. Yes, it would have moved many people from Fairfax through Arlington. Now, they will look to live in Arlington. State politics will NEVER let us exercise extreme use of imminent domain. The state legislature fvcking HATES US. They hate our hippy, granola, “progressive”, immigrant loving, hypocritical nimby asses. THEY HATE US.[/quote] The County is never going to give any money from AH or the d*** aquatics center. You have to know this, right? I'm not saying they should not, just that they WILL NOT. [/quote] It makes me ashamed to live here, and I don’t even have kids yet so I shouldn’t “care.” But as a taxpayer and a rational human I just DO.[/quote]
