A2: Brain Drain
In an op/ed for the Freep, Ann Arbor resident Brian Pappas writes about what it might take to keep young people in Michigan. “A region-wide public transit system can unite us and reframe the map over the long term, creating new centers of commerce and providing the infrastructure for long-term advancement. At a bare minimum, young people do not want to drink and drive, and don’t want to battle traffic on the way home. Public transit addresses those concerns. The Woodward and Ann Arbor corridors are great starts, but we need to think big!” [Source]
