re: #305 John Hughes

New York’s “success story” is the same as any European country that acted too late, but acted more or less well enough. It’s the same as France, Italy, Spain or the UK.

Not as bad as Belgium, not as stupid as Sweden, just more or less the average for a non-island industrialised country.

Yeah, but compare it to responses in America, and suddenly it looks really good. By no means perfect, of course.
