Is horrible when one Mayor big project is something like bike lanes and then next mayor for an opposing party came and stop all construction of expansion, or worse even destroy what had been done, so it's opponent doesn't get any additional credit

    It's so much worse as you scale up projects too. When neighbouring cities or regions need to work together it often only takes one douche canoe to torpedo the whole thing. Especially infrastructure projects and the like

    Great example: San Mateo and BART. Check out a map. They refuse to allow a station that would let BART make a giant loop around the Bay.

    Interesting. About 7 years ago I flew into San Fran and then drove to Newark. Bart would have been a much more enjoyable experience. 10/10 would not drive that drive again at 5pm
