This article concerns a building project next to the new Beacon Hill light rail station which certainly has merits, but comes on the deal of bullying and overreaching by the larger Sound Transit 'network' in Southeast Seattle.
People are free to disagree, the problem is that electeds, the one’s responsible, are afraid to make a decision and our legal system profits from deliberately drug out meaningless conflict.
The issue of upzoning on the South Link **was** fine, but the powers that be went to far – into single family zones and into insulting those that stood up for them. This Beacon Hill proposal might well have been a good idea, but that train may have already crashed, as it left the station.
We do have an alternative to this sort of process, we could give corporations priority over individuals. Ooops, excuse me, we already do. Perhaps this is just another small effort to make it **cheaper** to exercise that traitorous conspiracy.
What we need is public servants in all branches of government to do their jobs and make a decision respecting every individuals right to express their opinion.
Anyone who thinks any individual does not have the right does nothing but to sacrifice their own status as US citizen, if they can even be considered human.
Tbere is one place for such corporate welfare/bonus sucking harrassing f ups, that’s panhandling in front of the light rail stations. And if they can’t be civil about it, proceed accordingly…..
