[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"But yeah I understand that people somehow believe they are purchasing a right to a public service when they buy those houses." SHOCKING that people make home buying decisions based on what city services they would expect to receive. Even MORE SHOCKING that people with kids buy homes based on the local schools. I mean, why would we expect people to engage in rational decision making? People don't act rationally.[/quote] Nothing is "SHOCKING" here, we are recognizing a self-perpetuating problem and theorizing solutions. Choice sets were an interesting idea that deserved a full exploration. Obviously the city wasn't ready for it, but if we don't look at new ideas we will never break the cycle.[/quote]
