Political Beliefs
Political Philosophy
My political philosophy is free and open media and a local environmentally friendly economy, with free speech, free press, full equality, liberty, and justice for all. If there were more bicycles and public transit than there were automobiles there would be a lot less polution. Automobiles increase the cost of road maintenance while bicycles and pedestrians do not. The less automobiles in urban areas the less cities have to spend on repairing potholes and cracks in roads that are caused by high vehicle traffic. Therefore alternative transportation saves a lot of money on road maintenance costs.
