Much of the routine trade and investment between China and America is entirely appropriate and in America’s interest. But inserting the Chinese Communist Party into America’s pay-to-play system and its economic development strategy isn’t just crossing a line. It’s a leap into an abyss of stupidity.
Blair knows a lot about architecture, and nothing about politics. What the heck is a “good” city, and what is a “fair city”? He has many decades of excellent comments on specific buildings and designs in many different neighborhoods. Sounds like now he is starting to think about woke Dem politics and sociology and demographics more than architecture. Please, stick to architecture, Blair, and spare us your amateur political input.
“Equity” is a false promise.
Equity’s goal is equal outcomes. Do we really want to live in a society that supports mediocrity? That’s the only path to equity – and if it were ever actually achieved, would be the death knell for innovation, progress, and social improvement.
The whole concept is nonsense. Equal OPPORTUNITY, not equal OUTCOME.
Stupid chickens.
wonderful comment

By becoming a public charge city. That’s the way forward….
