  1. “One mile on a bike is a $.42 economic gain to society, one mile driving is a $.20 loss.”

    “Which means that Copenhagen, a city of 1.2 million people, saves $357 million a year on health costs because something like 80% of its population commutes by bike.” #CityMakingMath

  2. A classic example of why “let’s just compromise” is sometimes bullshit.

    Graphic showing that only 48% of Republicans believe that vaccines are safe and effective, while 80% of Democrats do; that only 35% of republicans think vaccines are tested for safety, while 74% of Democrats do; and that only 32% of Republicans think the childhood vaccine schedule  is safe, while 71% of democrats do.
