    Oh yeah, even through drive-thru or ordering in, the value meals were always over $10.

     

    But yeah, there’s no way he’s ordering that much Taco Bell unless he’s stoned.

    I can’t even imagine ordering that much! Like I don’t get Taco Bell much at all, but when I do it’s whatever $7-8 box they have and that shit fills me up

    I Uber Eated McDonalds while drunk, got a large Double Quarter Pounder meal, an extra order of large fries, and a triple cheeseburger and I paid around $28 including the tip to the driver.

     

    My point is no one is eating $28 worth of Taco Bell.

    Because McDonald’s is way way way over priced especially the combos. 

  3. It’s always dumb shit to make voting more difficult for young people and minorities. Not impossible but raises the bar to discourage voting. So a gun license can be used as acceptable ID but not a student ID*. TAMU, one of the largest universities by student population in the country, gets zero to one polling place on campus (I voted for Obama in my dining hall and that was one of many polling places back in 08! And I could use my goddamn utility bill to vote in ‘10!).

     

    Or like in WI, a drivers license or specific DMV issued ID (which requires a handful of documents to get) is needed to vote, oh and by the way we’re closing all DMVs after 4pm anywhere near a bus line and no we won’t be open before 9 or on the weekend. 
     

    Hell I wouldn’t be shocked if republicans try to make ballots English only again

    That's effectively the same as having parking passes for residents, right? Like, to park your car in the street in a given area you have to have an address in the zip code.

    Kinda. The police iirc come to your home and certify you have a private parking space (not street) for your car before you receive it

    Certain cities in Europe have been dabbling with that. Berlin recently (or is about to, I can't remember) ban private vehicles from the city center. Paris has effectively done so. There are fairly large swaths of Rome that has done so. Barcelona introduced "superblocks."

     

    Basically, they don't ban driving, what they actually do is ban parking (Paris, Berlin) or basically make the roads a maze for anyone but pedestrians/cyclists and force cars onto major roads (Barcelona)

     

    Certain neighborhoods in Portland have started dabbling with superblocks. In Northwest Portland, all north-south traffic gets funneled along a one-way couplet. If you try to drive through the neighborhood any other way, you'll eventually get funneled onto it.

     

    I honestly think banning parking for non-residents is the move, though. Don't allow non-residents to park in urban centers outside of parking garages, and force residents inside urban centers to pay for parking passes. Support for public transit will skyrocket before I can finish cumming.

    We should do what Japan does and force you to prove you have a place to park your car. Onus on the car owner and not housing developer.
