Here, it is called Granite State Future, in the San Francisco Bay area, it is called “The Plan Bay Area” (Statists just LOVE them “The Plan” – 1 year, 5 year, it is always a plan; nothing matters but The Plan). Just like here in NH, it is spearheaded by unelected officials that are directly unaccountable to voters and being funded by the evil trilogy of HUD / DOT / EPA to the tune of millions of dollars. There, the bureaucratic duopoly are the Metropolitan Transportation Commission and the Association of Bay Area Governments. Here in NH, it is the nine Regional Planning Commissions. In both areas (note: his same program has been lit in the Minneapolis / St Paul area), there are a plethora of “grassroots” groups that are aiding and abetting in the effort (chief amongst them here is NHListens and Action media, Transport NH) that are also being bedded by Federal monies. In all cases, all haste is being made to just PLOP this onto us all without a thorough public vetting via the legislative process – like most Progressive ideologies, it has to be done in the dark and in the back rooms otherwise if people knew more, there’d be a run on Tar and Feathers.More on this later.
One TEA Partier, with a great set of pipes, tried to express her dismay about The Plan Bay Area in song:
Rowdy Tea Partier at Oakland meeting! Celeste Paradise uses her 1 minute of public comment time to sing a protest song in frustration at the “Plan Bay Area” meeting in Oakland California before her microphone was abruptly cut off.
The mic was cut – but only because ALL serfs had only 1 minute for trying to seek redress from their Public Masters.
