Lets just say from observation, "Hypothetically Speaking" You have 2 giant ant mounds, 1 being (In retrospect) Larger more active, densely populated, then the other. If you took a square cube of sugar and dropped it, in both locations, with the same square footage, in either location, to feed the indigenous residents, expect to have nourished 100% of the inhabitance! In HK you would need a hand full of cubes per square mile, as to NY's 2 or 3 cubes per square mile, to have the similar or same affect on the population in those areas. Fact remains IMO, HK stands at the all time high for population density per square mile. Same would apply for human activity and in commerce 24/7. Night life, street dwellers, residence, both, the indigenous and the Taurus coming and going way out weigh New York's on it's best day! Kowloon would be a fine example of what maybe to come, in either location, considering migration standards in both areas!
Thought maybe a little humor to lighten the load, would be a good thing here!
