not to be reformist but i just realized requiring employers to treat a commute as time on the job would probably make american cities profoundly more habitable
I am having trouble understanding. Can you, or someone else who knows more about this please provide further explanation?
if employers were paying for commute time (as is standard in several countries), spending less time commuting would be incentivized. cities would be more compact and take less time to traverse than across urban sprawl. i also interpreted it to mean that cities would also have more diverse transportation infrastructure, instead of the heavily-trafficked slog of the freeway. efficient public transport, walkability, etc.
It’s cute you think they would invest in infrastructure instead of just refusing to hire people who lived further away than the more expensive downtown housing.
July 28 - Follow up to this post. Stickers / Nikki, a trans teen and organizer, has been released by the NYPD. This is another view of her abduction by the police. She’s skateboarding by the white van in the bottom when they grab her. This is abduction. Video link.
NYPD abducted her because she allegedly damaged cop cameras at the city hall occupation literally over a month ago. this means that NYPD has been keeping track of visible activists and people at the occupation and at the protests in general, and are now identifying them and taking them on the street without even asking for formal identification. be careful, cover your face, dont let your identity be connected to any actions you take. btw this is her gofundme
