$10 billion of urban transit spending won’t fundamentally fix the problem in Nashville because so, so many people commute in from out of the county because of white flight. We need regional transit solutions but they won’t happen because 1.) The suburban counties currently reap all the economic benefits with none of the costs (transit) 2.) The wealthier suburban counties (Williamson) don’t want people (read: anyone that isn’t rich and white) from Davidson County coming into their county. 3.) The extremely republican dominated state government isn’t going to spend any money on infrastructure for the main democratic stronghold of the state.
