Anybody here taken any interest in British politics recently? If you have then I expect you will fully understand why the younger generations are so apathetic on the topic. For the average man on the street it really is a case of voting for whom you dislike least, or not at all.

My local area has been shifting in the direction of UKIP during recent months. ''I'm nawt raicist...but it's bout time we try suttn new #bantheburka''.

That being said.
Spoiler:
Yeah, I've been keeping up with it a little bit. There is an interesting economic analysis by Paul Krugman here.

It goes into how the economic discourse in the UK is pretty misleading, reiterates the political science insight that people are freaking short sighted and that only 6 months to 1 year of economic news is the only thing that sticks to peoples minds when elections come around. Hence why any attempts at long term planning are a pretty hard sell.

Anyway, taking an Urban Policy and Planning class. Gotta review all that transportation stuff I learned last quarter lol.

But yeah, America, unlike European, Australia or Japan had the ability to just "sprawl" out it's urban areas, unlike dense cities in the latter. So cars became a dominant feature of transportation post-Interstate Highway System development.

Also don't forget "white flight." That's a huge component of suburban development.

Practically all lectures are cancelled this week, and the only assignment I've got coming the next fifteen days or so is a creative one.

This leaves space for fun things that are fun and some money making.
