has a pretty promotional copy tone but it’s great to see so much urbanism can be done with the willpower
in the end, this will give more benefit to the corporations than the residents.
the residents might feel that the intangible benefits to themselves outweigh any “ground” (metaphorical) given to the fat cats.
but all the statistically provable data will show that the corporations benefited more in the long run.
that’s the only way these “public good” get done these days. to get off the ground, the planners have to conform to the tyranny of the “win-win” ideology which western societies have blindly embraced.
studies that look back at the history of win-win public projects show that the private sector gets most of the benefits, and the citizens usually get none or almost none.
How much does a two bedroom cost, and what is the minimum wage?
Even if housing isn’t affordable due to rampant landlordism, it is also fact that more housing, more walkable streets, more infrastructure is a good thing. We need to do both the reorientation of housing towards being a human need rather a speculative asset and also construct more housing and more sustainable environments which are inherently some degree of urban.
Obviously. 🙄
On average, dunno about two- but one- is upwards of a thousand per month and three- is two or three depending on whether it’s in the city center, and €11.65/h for minimum wage.
Don’t forget free healthcare and high school education.
Isn’t it free until whatever you want to go to?
