What’s the Problem with Urban Planning?

The problem with urban planning is Urban Planning! Urban planning is that it is: dictatorial; represents the vision of a few; disenfranchises most of a city’s population and their neighborhoods; stifles innovation; dilutes civic power and wealth from the many to the few; stifles innovation; stagnates economic and business; picks losers and winners, and distorts who bolds urban governance, Outside of the above, it is all good.
