Day 190 - Health Again
Today I read in the news paper that a well loved bike area, where kids, meaning teenagers, can go and ride their bikes and do all sorts of bikey shenanigans will be demolished to make way for a condo development.
*sigh*
While everyone laments of childhood obesity, we get this. Where is the sense in taking away one of the few green areas left? Is this what we want? That kids as well as adults have to join a gym to get exercise because there is not one inch of space left that is not glass and cement?
Everyone is working at loggerheads when we should be working together.
I would say that I don't understand the rationale behind this. But you and I both know the rationale is money.
