see this and reward a politician with more attention or support for standing up to the people in the room and saying, hey, listen, there's 200 of you in here and I understand you're my constituents and I understand you want to stop the building for whatever reason you say, but there's also 10,000, 20,000, 30,000 more people who will benefit from this being built and they're my constituents too.
They might move to this city and the housing price might go down. Millions of people might be benefited. So I have to think about all that, and I have to... If people are rewarded for that, people understand that, and voters reward that, then they have an incentive to do that. Right now, nobody cares or notices or even understands this problem.

articulate a problem really easily and digestibly, I think you've done a good thing because people can understand, explain to their friends, word of mouth spreads, and then there is an incentive. Then you get a win as a politician when you talk about this and you stand up for this and you build it.

Everyone who shoots a regulation goes away. So you brought this up. I want to bring this up because I... Well, I agree with everything you said, to be honest.
