We don’t have a Subway on the corner, we have a Fork Heart Knife. We don’t have an Applebees, we have Neon’s. Those are the kinds of places, I think, that local people want.

Aaron Renn recently wrote that It’s Time for America to Get On the Bus. He argues that cities should look at improving the quality of their bus service to eliminate the negative perception and attract more riders. He states that while there’s a “legitimate case for rail” in many cities (including Cincinnati), adding high-quality bus service to the plan can expand the reach of the transit network at a lower cost.

Cincinnati’s plan to build a streetcar once seemed like a dumb idea. Now that I’ve seen the effects these rail systems can have on cities like Cincinnati, I support the plan. If it were up to me, I would start building the Cincinnati streetcar tomorrow.

DP: You would think that with the instant communications of Internet, that all this misinformation and urban legend stuff — that people would catch on that it’s not true.

DM: The flaw in that theory is that for a good many people, it’s not important whether things are true or not. It reflects what people want to believe. It reflects a worldview. It’s their way of passing along things that concern them. Things they’re afraid of.

Like it could be, “I don’t care if Richard Nixon really did this. It sounds like something he would have done.” A lot of people are unwilling to acknowledge anything that contradicts their worldview. So telling them that it’s false doesn’t necessarily slow them down. That’s how urban legends get started for the most case.
