Yup. Privatise the profits, nationalise the costs 🙁

Is there an uninhabited island we can use as a "charter city", send Tufton St there, and let them go nuts? They get to implement their wild ideas, and nobody else gets dragged into it. Win for everyone!

@user-rb3jw7yj9o it probably does count, although the exploitation is limited by being a small zone in a massive city If people don't like jobs there, they can leave and find a similar job outside the zone, with little or no difference to their commute If a charter took over Sheffield, for example, the effort required to escape the charter would be far higher 🙁

@user-rb3jw7yj9o indeed, but that's concentrated money as much as any local statutes. The banks and hedge funds outside the City are just as bad as the ones inside!
