It's really quite contrary to the attitude toward migration and expansion that historically dominated in the city and that's arguably its greatest source of success.

Obviously you can't fit the whole world here, but we're nowhere close to what we could do. For fucks sake most of the city is still zoned for single family homes and we never even finished the goddamn subway.
