Participant[quote=briansd1][quote=Nor-LA-SD-GUY2]I have one thing to say,
The internet makes the whole world local.[/quote]
It does not.
My cousin who retired to Fort Myers, Florida is back in CA after 2 years. She could not handle the loneliness and boring suburban life over there.
The Internet is creating a global culture. Megacities are on the rise around the world. They are becoming hubs of finance, media, tech and education.
If you’re young, smart, and live in a small town, the Internet allows you see what you’re missing and you want to move to the big city.
I have dreams of San Diego and Tijuana becoming am American style free-trade zone like Hong Kong.
Maybe I’m wrong and people will move to Idaho because they can work remotely on the Net.[/quote]
hmm well that is something I do agree with
LA/OC/SD will become a Megacity (it’s well on it’s way) but it will not be because of tech and it won’t be confined to downtown.August 18, 2011 at 5:39 AM #721945Participant[quote=briansd1][quote=Nor-LA-SD-GUY2]I have one thing to say,

Participant[quote=deadzone]The healthcare in TJ is already avaialble to us without opening the border any more. But yeah there is something to be said for going down there for routine health care and prescriptions. The system here is broke and getting worse by the day.[/quote]
Technically, most things in TJ are “already available to us without opening the border any more.” Oftentimes, the hassle is the border itself.
What I’d like to see with healthcare – and this will never ever happen – is to allow doctors/dentists/etc. to practice in San Diego in the same manner they practice in TJ (that is, fewer regulations, less fear of malpractice, etc.) so that you don’t actually have to cross the border to capture the value… but, again, that’s never gonna happen.
Opening the border on healthcare – so to speak – would be an enormous benefit to San Diegans. Because as you mentioned, “the system here is broke…”
