"this reflects purely on the new mayor shows incompetence social psychology, economics and policy making" Eh, I mean, seems like he is more so trying to get work for all of the people that live there in the quickest way he knows how. Cleaners, hotels, police, hospitality, etc.
Cities are networks effects in the physical world, if they start to unravel then most people will be out of a job. That's totally your right to want to never come back to the office, I'm sure you will have no problem doing just that. On the contrary, it's actually the mayor's JOB to keep those network effects (i.e. the city) going.
So yeah, we could reconfigure New York, and maybe we should, but that will cause a lot of pain to a lot of people who can't do what you are doing and who don't make 100k+ in the comfort of their own home.
- emptysongglass 5y agoIt's not the mayor's job to do this. This is such a hamfisted approach to re-homing tax dollars. Instead of thinking innovatively, he's an old man arguing with the waves. It reeks of ugly desperation and parental overreach. The people have spoken. Now it's time to learn to surf.
