ndrosenTo continue with Joshua Vincent’s late-morning talk on Sunday, July 30, 2017, “What Works and What Doesn’t, in an Era of Polarization,” Josh spoke of our activities as a relay race, and getting leverage in the academy: not so much with economists as with urbanists, finance and development people, etc., who are interested and becoming knowledgeable.
You’ll be called a Communist, a Fascist, whatever. Don’t be stopped. Find Common Ground.
Parking lot owners will hate you. Josh has experiences. A conservative Republican worked with the Democratic mayor to get LVT in Altoona; he saw that Fiori, a landowner, would be against it.
Become a valuable source of information.
Show up: Kiwanis, Rotary Club, whatever. In Hartford, Connecticut, we have support from capitalist pigs and from the Working Families Party.
We’re primates, and there are always moments of aggression. Divisiveness leads to destruction. People get high, like drug addicts, off hate and destruction, but these aren’t good in the long run.
During the Q&A session, Bill Batt said to Joshua that while Joshua attended the Pennsylvania League of Cities, and did well with them, Batt went to the New York mayors, and had little success, but instead got laughed at.
Someone (maybe Batt again) said that in South Africa, the provincial legislature has asked for LVT for the Western Cape.
After that came lunch, with more brief reports from member organizations.
