Can you cite such examples?
Melbourne, Switzerland, Singapore, HK and 20th century examples of SF, NYC, London were all attractive hyper capitalistic cities.
- giraffe_lady 4y agoRight and how do the people who have lived in those places the whole time feel about it? A very common complaint in those cities is that local interests are deprioritized to make a more favorable environment for the rich. There's probably some amount of unavoidable tension between these things but viewing gov policy mainly as a means to compete for wealth holders does not seem likely to lead to balanced outcomes.
