The only issue is the unsustainability of this system. It has been this way for many years, but in the last 10 years I think it has gotten far worse. And keeps getting worse and worse.

This might sound like some crazy rant, but I genuinely don’t know how people intend to source cheap labor going forward, if they keep displacing low income housing.

I personally expect huge pushes in automation, so eventually New York City will just become a cool, hip playground for well off college kids and “average” earning FAANG people, they won’t have to bear the sight of poor people who support the city behind the scenes.
