I've never understood the utility of this kinda thing, other than for denialists who don't like to admit we have a bit of a population problem on our hands.
ReplyDeleteMy purpose would be to demonstrate the inefficiency of relying wholly on the free market for infrastructure growth. I suppose it's pretty meaningless without an explanation of "why we'd want to live in the density of Brooklyn." I suppose there is a little bit of the context of "think of all the energy we'd save!" but not much.
