re: What a neighborhood sidewalk debate says about Baton Rouge

quote:

---

Younger generations want this.

The old guard doesn't. Until the old people in power die off, BR will just have to accept this. It's like this in most small to mid sized towns in the South.

It's not the older generation screaming on here about paying for anything. The younger generation wants it sure but they don't want to pay for it. How many old people do you think are posting here against new roads? I'm old and I support roads, bike paths and connectivity simply for traffic management. Old people will support it, old people can afford it and old people will pay for it. Young people won't. And a large sum of complainers on this board don't even live in the parish.
