Yeah, it's SUCH a wasteful distribution of resources. Super inefficient.

Yeah honestly I think this all the time! There's so so much stock there, it's just all so expensive, or someone is keeping it empty as a second home.

We need to figure out how to transmit that historical memory so that we can continue to experience the benefits of our children surviving childhood. It's actually a new challenge, which is why we haven't figured it out yet. I am trying to stay hopeful.

It's an increasing problem in rich countries with comfortable health care systems. I try to remind myself that this is the first time in history we have been confronted with the wonderful problem of not having enough people alive who remember the ravages of the prevaccine era.

Hmm, I know that congestion pricing in New York City has immediately improved bus journey times by reducing the number of cars on the streets, and there is data for that. I don't have something to link to for Paris but I would be surprised if the same didn't hold true.
