Comment on Let’s start protecting people instead of profits

This is all possible without asking Trump.

All the people who want this: Pick one city to move to. Then build the housing with solar cells, public transport and a hospital.

If banks don’t finance this, have a lottery. One half has to stay and make money, the other half moves and builds the city. Once the city is profitable, the other half moves there, too.

  Where do you see the problems? I think the biggest obstacle is finding the people. Once that’s solved everything else will be solved by the people who want to live in such a city.

    Bill Maher did “let’s flip a district” like a decade and a half ago. Lots of words accurately describe you, but “original” isn’t one of them.

    People settled entire continents. I am not claiming this as my idea. I am more puzzled that people don’t do it. Why was "let’s flip a district” not successful?
