Obama’s DOT Secretary: Lack of Sidewalks is Reason for Lack of Achieving American Dream
For the love of Pete, can someone with a brain make the connection of how sidewalks in neighborhoods promotes the American dream, which is freedom, and why not having sidewalks is an obstacle to same? The Department of Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx tried to do so in front of the Charlotte Rotary Club in North Carolina, but has fallen short in his explanation. What Foxx pointed out was that “only 49% of low income neighborhoods have sidewalks” as opposed to 90% of affluent areas.
His claim is that for everyone to have a “shot” at the American Dream, all neighborhoods need sidewalks and “it’s imperative that we acknowledge these challenges.” Foxx discussed ways “infrastructure should connect people to opportunity.” Opportunity is far different than the American Dream of freedom. Because of freedom, the united States was viewed as the land of opportunity due to the limited intrusion of government in the daily lives of citizens and the ability to move ahead if one is willing to work hard. Unfortunately, the land of opportunity has about dried up and freedom is almost a memory as the government encroaches even more into the daily lives of citizens.
