This is 100% accurate in my pretty deep experiences living in all 3 categories. Manhattan is a massively friendly place—people just have things to do so most of the phony chitchat gets left out. Always felt our neighborhood friendliness came from the mad variety of people co-existing.

“Strong floor, no ceiling” is absolutely the type of slogan that a focus group of swing voters will tell you they find appealing after it has been a whole hour and they just want to go home.

For another thing, it's a fearful loser slogan. It's an extension of 35-40 years of loser Democratic politics in which all they care about is not being called commies by Republicans. Guess what: they're gonna call you commies anyway, so maybe fucking stand for something.
