    You have to get all the way to the end to see that it’s tagged as “opinion.” It’s definitely anecdotal and opinion.

    The author makes good points, but I wouldn’t take any of their classes because the writing is just not good.

      It’s an opinion piece written by career city planner, professor, and progressive urbanist Bill Lindeke which cites real numbers and facts that will remain a reality regardless of your feelings on the man’s rhetorical skill or unfamiliarity with modern journalism norms.

      I think he’s right, by the way. Minnesota’s proposed state transit budget is dangerously regressive.
