| Post subject: | Induced demand |
Theres a well known phenomenon in civil engineering that says if you make it bigger or better, more people want it, therefore negating the original benefit of providing more. this can cause a runaway effect. the better or more it is, the more they want. obviously cities cant sustain this. but when i think about me, i wonder if that's true. i could sustain it, but could they? my dick. |

It’s the civil engineering theory behind road expansion/traffic, no? Make it bigger, wider, etc…commute won’t change. More cars will come and water finds its level. I think it seems logically true. |

i think it seems logically retarded. its like saying if i keep banging whores, more whores will want me. theres a limit trust me what they are really saying is 'i got a degree. i shouldnt need to work anymore. just take my civil engineering advice and stop building. that will fix the city problem, and the problem where i have to do things' |

Let’s use the whore analogy… It’s like saying, we’ve got 8 guys and those guys demand 4 whores. How bout we hire 2 more whores? Ok, well now we’ve got a supply imbalance. How does the market rectify that? It brings us 4 more Beardowns to entertain those whores. Market forces are real. There’s no point fighting nature. |

your analogy failed because in reality those 8 guys are demanding more whores and youre trying to reason why they dont need them. |

the city has convinced itself that it can eliminate demand with its planning. Don't allow parking to even be proposed as part of new construction and suddenly people won't drive cars...or they will and everyone will be parking on the street. It's always a danger to have people who have never worked in the private sector making decisions about where the market will go. |

thats my point. they always force their dumbass ideals onto the population. sometimes it works, but usually it doesn't. like st street in madison. WHY ARE THERE BUSSES. that whole street should be a bike bath down the middle, with tables/seating and shopping taking up the rest of the space. it could be a marketplace every day. but no, because the city NEEDS BUSSES driving up and down all damn day for no fucking reason. |
