Is it ordinary to assume crazy people have the skill sets to run a city?

They probably don't, but that doesn't seem to stop them. In fact, crazy seems to have been the main reason someone got to be leader of the free world.  :eek:

I am not too sure if we as voters question our sanity when we vote and I think we take a massive leap of faith and assume that they wouldn't run if they didn't have the skills. It is not an effective way to make decisions and we keep doing it.

 

Hah, absolutely. We see it again and again. Some people can grow into the role, but many can't.

Good Afternoon Vibrant Victorians,

Latest Lisa, Gene and Eric out for your listening pleasure and this week we have Rob Abbott of Abbott Strategies join us to chat about harmony in a city. Based on fairly diligent reading of posts on VV, I can appreciate that it is hard to find harmony with so many competing ideas but hey it is the left coast and maybe, just maybe we can design cities to propel us to a more harmonious community. Enjoy the show. http://bit.ly/2fk4obR

Our latest podcast is out and this week we have Victoria Cool Aid Society CEO Kathy Stinson join us to chat about the challenges of locating affordable housing in the Greater Victoria area. Can the effort required to increase density for a potential new build site be worth the chance the whole project could be scrubbed by local backlash. Is it a case of keep your head down and build?
