Ben's endorsement, qualified.

dsl has left a new comment on your post "Two towns --- one man":

The article on the luxury condos in Chinatown was very interesting for two reasons. The first is the very fact that people will pay ultra high prices for apartments which were built for poor immigrants. The second is how "Chinatown" has expanded into what was "Little Italy" and the Jewish part of the Lower East Side. Most if not all of the kosher restaurants of that part of "Chinatown" are gone. Such is the way of New York and why New York, with all its problems, will NEVER die.

Ben's response:

Agreed.

With some notable exceptions (desegregation, Social Security) the market does things best.

That's what most (many?) Neo-Cons believe.
