Just FYI, but reason magazine is a center of right libertarian news source owned by the Reason Foundation.
In the past they have been highly critical of all things Urban, and were actively anti-mass transit, which I have found vexxing. Just keep that in mind when reading their media.
Reason Foundation cofounder Robert Poole is an MIT-trained engineer and the author of Cutting Back City Hall.[7] The book provided the intellectual support for Margaret Thatcher’s privatization efforts in the United Kingdom.
