Why is Wall Street brushing off Trump’s escalating tariff threats?
Investors feel free to continue bidding up stock prices because they assume TACO Trump will always back down from his most costly tariff plans, market analysts said.
But Trump views stocks’ steady rise as a license to intensify his trade threats,
acting out the economic policy equivalent of his 2016 quip that he could “stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody” without paying a price.

I’m glad to have never lived in such places that are only accessible by car. Just cities and 'burbs built up before the phenomenon of encapsulated residential developments became dominant. I always walked (or more often biked) to school as a kid and so did my kids (except for K, of course)
I wonder what sort of effect that has on the psyche. Seems like a recipe for people predisposed to xenophobia.

Because the problem is in the infrastructure, I’d ask my fellow cyclists and urbanists to make sure any fist-shaking about these vehicles is directed toward •improving infrastructure• instead of •policing novel vehicles•.
I can easily imagine a backlash to these vehicles at the city Council meeting turning into rules that make it harder to get better vehicles on the street.
Instead, the reaction I’d like to see to these UPS cargo-bike-adjacent thingers is “Great!! Obviously they’re a problem in these too-narrow bike we’ve stuffed onto road shoulders, so where can we put them?”

Today's ride into work was something. If I ride fast in the morning I take the Menomonee River Parkway but ride on the street going about 25mph. I saw a guy on the Oak Leaf Trail with a motorcycle helmet and "motocross style dirt bike" ebike. He was probably going 20mph but kept slowing down to pass people walking. Seemed like he should have been on the road with me. I was beating him on speed since I was on the road free of pedestrians.
