Summary:
In "Recommended Reading," the New York Times wrings its hands about the "emptiest downtown in America" -- San Francisco. It says in the post-pandemic world "tech workers are staying home" and buying their expensive salads in the suburbs. The Times doesn't seem to know that San Francisco is home. It is a bedroom community. All the tech workers live there, and work in the suburbs. It's been a reverse-commute for 20 years. If the streets of San Francisco seem abandoned these days, maybe look to something other than post-pandemic work habits. How about the homelessness crisis caused by policies advocated by the Times for decades?
