We already have a pretty vibrant county, but thanks for your concern.

The "is this a CVS" switcheroo gets me every time.

Yes, we’ve got that too! And sadly the parking lot is always super packed.

Lakeside is GREAT. I can walk to a farmers market- ride my bike to another one- and I have restaurants, a brewery, a couple great dive bars, and Lewis Ginter within just a few minutes. I’ve also got great interstate access.

Yeah, and Bryan park is being neglected by the city too.

Sadly that wouldn’t work. Politicians get in the way. Look at the Post Office.

Nationalize them. The power grid is part and parrtial with national security and shouldn’t be up to the whims of profit seeking enterprise.

You just jumped the shark on that one. Are you really saying that parents should focus on every single child before putting more focus on their own? I am going to take it you don't have kids
Also, the FOX PTA has many Black and Hispanic parents, I guess they are also practicing Jim Crow. Just wow.

Reply to Fluoride water causing stomach issues by [deleted]
The only think fluoride in water does is prevent cavities. Richmond city water does have a bit more iron and hardness than I like and as a result I don’t love the taste and how it leaves residue on the fixtures, but I grew up on county water which is still fluoridated and from the river, but seems to be processed more to reduce the iron content and hardness.
I seriously doubt this is the cause of her ailments. Maybe it’s a change in diet, has she taken any antibiotics that might upset her gut bacteria, something like that?

Consumers of electricity don’t have a choice in how the electricity is generated. That’s why I specifically said “the decision makers” at dominion

Jesus Christ dude, you're willing to throw away a school with a 44% economically disadvantaged student body because your ideology says it's not ok to help rich white people too. This is a bullshit take and a big part of the reason RPS and Richmond as a whole struggle to make progress.

For a lower income family $73 is a nice family dinner that they otherwise couldn't afford.

There is alot variation in electric retail markets, Texas has the most expansive retail competition. Comparing Texas and California retail markets is an interesting case study in market design -- with California creating some counter-productive incentives that led to the 2001 outages, Enron and all that.

What have you done lately to help the causes you support? Guessing nothing, except maybe a few Reddit comments and tweets.

I agree that PTAs are inequitable and that the fox pta is putting its mouth one place and it’s money the other.

Seconding this, Lakeside is a pretty great transition from the city to the suburbs.
