    Car-free Manhattan is just the 78% of households without cars winning out over the 22% with and the daily invaders from out of town. Those percentages are way beyond pro-weed vs. anti-weed and weed has won in a lot of places even without overthrowing capitalism. It’s long overdue there and even the late mayor Koch considered it before I was born.

      It will lose because 78% isn’t organized and willing to force change down the throats of those with power.

      By the time they were, we could do the necessary overthrow of capitalism first because it is the capitalists that will prevent a car-free Manhattan.

      But I’m also saying that you can try. When you do, remember who the enemy is and see who prevents you - and who they align with!
