Summary
The Department of Transportation (DOT) has issued a memo prioritizing federal funding for communities with marriage and birth rates above the national average.
The directive, which applies to grants, loans, and contracts, also prioritizes projects benefiting families with young children.
A congressional aide criticized the policy, saying, āConsidering fertility rates when prioritizing federal grants? We obviously have no idea what the full impact of that will beā¦ Itās absolutely creepy. Itās a little āChinese government.āā
The memo also blocks mask mandates and requires compliance with immigration enforcement.
Prioritize funding for places with higher birth rates, you say? Soā¦ Communities with loads of immigrants. Got it.
the āwhiteā was implied
They donāt even have to imply it!
They can just define it with congressional districts or some arbitrary measure that clusters their desired groups and fragments their undesired groups.
Even if this wasnāt the actual, real end to even the charade of U.S. democracy, it would take at least a generation or two to āproveā those policies are hurtful in the courts.
What then? The damage is done. Infrastructure built. Certain groups given generational advantages, certain groups left behind.
They were removed from the calculation after Elon was given network access and privs to the US government.
