American cities are small potatoes compared to the glittering skyscrapers of Asia. Same for tired Europe. Which is why old school arguments against the downsides of "communism" are not working anymore. Kids (and corporations) will chase money and sacrifice freedoms if necessary.

Replace the two cities with San Francisco and New York City and you "explain" why young people have moved to big cities for decades.
In other words, not an explanation.

Is the argument really that young people like 'glittering skyscrapers' above all?
Then why do so many look towards, say, the social democracy of Europe - which has far fewer skyscrapers than US? Eg, see https://history.stackexchange.com/questions/2530/why-does-eu... .
