We should let them build this and then build high speed rail lines directly through the richest, whitest neighborhood to make up for all the 20th century’s city planning decisions.

And before you wanna have principled or reasonable opposition to my plan, think about how funny it would be to eminent domain the investors’ luxury condo building(s). America needs a good laugh sometimes too.
