but in general, the benefit cost ratio on adding highways in already built up areas sucks. that's what history is teaching us, should we care to learn it. the benefit cost ratio of highways on virgin unhighwayed land is SUPER. the ratio after you have them all over and it's built up SUCKS. in general.

How may flying machines and contraptions failed before the Wright brothers got it right? Throughout history, we learn from the mistakes before us, and we work to avoid making the same mistakes in the hopes of avoiding the problems already experienced. It's called learning.

The take-away is not "it was tried, it failed, we should never try it again." The take-away is "they did so many things wrong in this, how do we avoid the same mistakes."
