@sarahjeong Idea of "optimal urban density" is nonsense (optimal for whom?) not entertained by anyone w/ a coherent free-market worldview.
the idea that free market conditions will naturally result in optimal urban density is charmingly naive

@sarahjeong I mean, look at the vile layout of basically any city in the US. All that ground level parking... -
@Deftab You do realize all of that is done by public sector city planners and architects, right? -
@Not__All__Men Yeah, you're right that it's not accurate to blame it all on the free market, but the goal is obvious.

@sarahjeong Or optimal _anything_. By itself the free market will put a price on your internal organs, then outbid you for them. -
@landley Except that would wager their own organs which is an impossibility. The social contract functions w/o 'formal' laws. Read Leviathan -
@Not__All__Men Poe's Law has its own twitter account now? -
@landley Yes, because quoting the works of one of the most successful philosophers of all time is obviously extremist propaganda.

@sarahjeong the idea that "free market conditions" can result in any "optimum" is bullshit - the math doesn't work. -
@znmeb Seems to have worked in Switzerland, Canada, Finland, Norway, Sweden, Monaco, Luxembourg, Germany and Austria. All pacing US GDP.

@sarahjeong "By what definition of optimal?" seems like an important question. -
@sooner930 Not for an absolutist feminist who sees the world in black-and-white generalizations. There's no grey area to be had.
