Get people into cities and put them to work.

Nono, that's not what you said. You said "towns waste space". Please, expand on that, I'm dying to know what you mean, as it just seems like a laughably absurd statement to make.

Between him and DiBlasio, they really screwed up New Yorkers.

Diblasio can’t run again this year fortunately and it’s a strong possibility he is replaced by Andrew Yang. He’s the current front runner for the democratic nomination.

Seriously speaking, I prefer vertical growth to horizontal growth. That's all.

I def like Yang, but it seems like Stringer would be alright as well.

We can eliminate homelessness and not herd everyone into cities.

It still doesn't really explain the very broad brush "towns waste space" statement.

I don’t know much about him but I much prefer Yang and he is my top choice.

I guess, I don't know. You can take the government option if you want but it should exist.

Then it's people's choice if they want to risk being homeless.

Yes and it would be nice if Cuomo was impeached or resigned and we got Kathy Hochul as Governor. She has far less of an ego than Cuomo and doesn’t grandstand.

"Live in cities, or die."

How dictatorial of you. Although given your recent comments and ideals, it is not surprising.

Government builds or buys apartments from private companies for people in cities. If you don't want a government apartment then you don't have to take it.

As much as I like cities I agree forcing people to live there is dictatorial.

You don't have to live there just because I don't want you to be homeless.

No. Let me put your statement to you again: "towns waste space". Explain it without resorting to talking about cities, as that is not an explanation of that statement.
