"The downsides of giving up all this space to cars aren’t just aesthetic. Cities are less compact and more congested. Less land is available for housing. And most significantly for conservatives, communities are less cohesive." aporiamagazine.com/p/why-conserva…

"Countries that achieve economic development do not begin with mass democracy. They end with it." aporiamagazine.com/p/mass-democra…
