Note: The Great One’s voice was dying during recording this cast. He will attempt to do better next time. He can attempt doing better because he is a straight white man. You’re welcome.

It’s time to talk about a book. It’s a book that takes almost 400 pages to completely avoid talking about the cause of the problem and the solution.

Why Nothing Works: Who Killed Progress and How to Get It Back by Marc Dunkelman is out topic until it isn’t our topic. I was not able to find evidence that Dunkelman is a Jew. I couldn’t find evidence he isn’t a Jew. He looks like a Jew. He quacks like a Jew – he’s got all the Jew talking points.

In theory this book is about why the government can no longer get big projects done.

That’s not really what the book is about. The book is about providing day care for niggers and white replacement.

Furthermore we all know why government can’t accomplish big projects. The government is entirely devoted to two functions. Day care for Israel and day care for niggers. The extermination of whites isn’t so much a focus of the federal government as it is a by product of the two primary missions previously mentioned.

Robert Moses is a Jew. But is he a unicorn?

Racism

Caro’s The Power Broker also accused Moses of building low bridges across his parkways to make them inaccessible to public transit buses, thereby restricting “the use of state parks by poor and lower-middle-class families” who did not own cars. Caro also wrote that Moses attempted to discourage Black people in particular from visiting Jones Beach, the centerpiece of the Long Island state park system, by such measures as making it difficult for Black groups to get permits to park buses, and assigning Black lifeguards to “distant, less developed beaches”.[37] While the exclusion of commercial vehicles and the use of low bridges where appropriate were standard on earlier parkways, where they had been instituted for aesthetic reasons, Moses appears to have made greater use of low bridges, which his aide (((Sidney Shapiro))) said was done to make it more difficult for future legislatures to allow access for commercial vehicles.[65][66] Woolgar and Cooper refer to the claim about bridges as an “urban legend”.[67]

Moses vocally opposed allowing Black war veterans to move into Stuyvesant Town, a Manhattan residential development complex created to house World War II veterans.[58][16] In response to the biography, Moses defended his forced displacement of poor and minority communities as an inevitable part of urban revitalization: “I raise my (((stein))) to the builder who can remove ghettos without moving people as I hail the chef who can make omelets without breaking eggs.”[55]

Additionally, there were allegations that Moses selectively chose locations for recreational facilities based on the racial compositions of a neighborhood, such as when he selected sites for eleven pools that opened in 1936. According to one author, Moses purposely placed some pools in neighborhoods with mainly white populations to deter African Americans from using them, and other pools intended for African Americans, such as the one in Colonial Park (now Jackie Robinson Park), were placed in inconvenient locations.[68] Another author wrote that of 255 playgrounds built in the 1930s under Moses’s tenure, only two were in largely Black neighborhoods.[69] Caro wrote that close associates of Moses had claimed they could keep African Americans from using the Thomas Jefferson Pool, in then-predominantly-white East Harlem, by making the water too cold.[70][59] Nonetheless, no other source has corroborated the claim that heaters in any particular pool were deactivated or not included in the pool’s design.[71]

In addition, Moses took a favorable view of the British Empire and a racism much broader than solely towards the African-American community, speaking of Empire as useful in stemming the “rise of the lesser breeds without the law”.[72][73][74]

Here is an interview with Dunkelman which I don’t read in the podcast but might be interesting. Notice in the quote below the years. In the 1950s thing got done. That ended in 1968. It’s almost as if something happened in the 1960s that destroyed American society and government.

Geoff Kabaservice: I can’t resist adding here that when I was in college in the ‘80s, I took Vincent Scully’s architecture class and he pointed out that not only was Penn Station a rat’s nest, but it had replaced one of the most beautiful buildings in New York, which was the sort of neoclassical, Baths of Caracalla kind of old station that people remember longingly. And his quote on this was: “Once you entered into the city like a god. Now you scuttle in like a rat.”

Marc Dunkelman: It’s a classic quote, and often cited when people talk about Penn Station — and absolutely right. And what was so remarkable to me, as I read The Power Broker while commuting through Penn Station, was that somehow (((Robert Moses))) had been able to do really, truly terrible things in the ‘50s while everyone said “No.” And yet here we had the state’s senior senator, the chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, making this his number one policy priority, and for decades he wasn’t able to get it done. There was no real opposition. No one was ideologically opposed to a better Penn Station — whereas people had been opposed for all sorts of reasons to (((Robert Moses)))’ ideas and plans. No one opposed this, and yet it couldn’t get done.

And so this book is an attempt to understand what had changed between the height of (((Robert Moses)))’ reign, which really ended in 1968 — he’d been at the height of his power probably in the ‘50s — and then a half-century later, even good projects can’t get done. The intellectual journey of the book begins there, because really when I began I had no answer to that question, I had no real understanding. I knew that something had changed, but I didn’t know what it was. And what I found was that it was not a one-off; it was not about Penn Station itself. It was about a fundamental shift in the way progressivism approaches public challenges.
