Appreciate the comment. And I’m just being a smartass about Philly Mag itself, which my dad gets me a subscription too every year for like the last 20 years. I did actually read the article and enjoyed it. It was interesting.

I think we severely underestimate, especially on this sub, the amount of people that are rapidly pulling away from not wanting to come into the city for anything. There’s always been a large contingent of that, but I am increasingly hearing from friends, family and coworkers how they have zero desire to come in to the city for anything. I think the comments from Mignucci are touching on that, although he’s trying to be still somewhat diplomatic.

I realize this might blow your mind, but have you EVER considered that there is no arch-criminal/ Keyser Soze type “buying” or “inducing” them to do shit. They are fully aware that stealing peoples shit at gunpoint is wrong and carries consequences, everywhere except here anyway, and YET, they still, somehow, make the decision to do it anyway.
