What if we had cities, but smaller ones and made sure companies and business opportunities were not concentrated in a few points? We could enjoy the benefits of high demographic density that matters, while having walkability.

If we have zoning requirements for building residences, why not quotas for the number of companies allowed in a city, in a county, in a state? Why the fuck everybody needs to live in a ratcage in NYC, because every fucking oligarch feels like he needs to have his bank HQ in Manhattan? Why can't we have a few dozen smaller high density urban centers instead on this day and age?

something like "sorry Mega Company, we already have MegaCorp and MegaEnterprise here on this city, the quota is over, have you considered PleasantVille for your new HQ? I hear they have a free quota after MBA Business Machines finally fold down and closed their offices there. "

What about industry? Do you want megabuildings like they have in Taiwan, where the company owns the whole building with grocery stores, laundry, apartments, and a factory all in the same building?

How's the air quality in cities where they do that?
