1
If you told San Francisco politicians that they should take lessons from Rudy Giuliani, they'd think you're nuts.
2
Maybe even evil.
3
They see him as quite likely the second most destructive politician in America, who peddled conspiracy theories, tried to stage a coup, and is finally getting his due comeuppance.
4
But when Rudy Giuliani took over New York in 1994, it looked a lot like today's San Francisco.
5
Or for that matter, Chicago, Baltimore, Portland, or a number of other cities as well.
6
The fixes to these cities aren't state secrets.
7
Giuliani took care of New York with some straightforward solutions that can be used today.
8
First, let's take a quick look at San Francisco.
9
Now, I live in the Bay Area, and when I mention that to some people, they're stunned, thinking that I live in some sort of third-world smoldering city.
10
So let me be clear.
11
If you've only seen San Francisco through news reports and crazy clips online, it's not as bad as you think.
12
There are a whole lot of amazingly beautiful parts of town, and you'll find neighborhoods that are safe and clean.
13
But big parts of it are actually hell holes, and everybody who lives here knows it.
14
It's a mess.
15
Mentally ill and drug addicted people have literally taken over chunks of the city.
16
We have increasing violence, car break-ins, open-air drug dealing and shoplifting that's driving businesses right out of the city.
17
It's left some areas as wastelands.
18
And it's not just an eyesore, it's a human tragedy unfolding right before our eyes.
19
Drug deaths have exploded and people with horrific problems are living like zombies on the streets.
20
And the elephant in the room is that the government has no solution on the horizon.
21
Its policies aren't simply failing, they're making things worse.
22
Now I also lived in New York when it was in a doom loop of its own.
23
The city was dystopian.
24
Murder rates were astronomical.
25
Times Square was more about prostitution and drugs than tourism.
26
And no sane person would walk through Central Park after dark.
27
Schools were dysfunctional and the government was broke.
28
Mafia corruption was a real factor, and people cheered when vigilantes like Bernie Goetz shot muggers on a train, or the guardian angels patrolled streets.
29
Like troubled cities today, it wasn't one problem, but a whole litany of problems.
30
And in eight years as mayor, Rudy Giuliani turned all of that around.
31
Violent crime dropped by over half.
32
Robberies fell 67 percent.
33
The number of yearly murders dropped from 2,000 in his first year to 649 in his last, literally saving thousands of lives over his tenure.
34
Unemployment dropped from over 10% in 1993 to 5.6% in 2001.
35
Welfare rolls dropped by half.
36
School test scores went up.
37
He inherited a city with a 2.3 billion dollar budget gap and left with a surplus.
38
The city turned from an urban nightmare to a livable city and a tourist mecca.
39
It was the absolute reverse of a doom loop.
40
I saw it happen and I know it's possible.
41
But the first step doesn't start at City Hall.
42
It actually starts with voters.
43
They need to get fed up and they need to vote that way.
44
Politicians rarely push change on their own.
45
It's hard work.
46
So they're generally barometers of public sentiment.
47
They don't lead the marching band, they see where it's going and they jump out in front of it.
48
Now, people of San Francisco are generally very nice people, maybe too much so.
49
That comes through in city politics, with their real concerns about things like poverty, minority rights, the rights of accused criminals and police brutality.
50
Voters here don't want to criminalize poverty
51
and they We support harm reduction strategies like cash and needle giveaways that other communities might call enabling.
52
But values like safety and public order are increasing.
53
Voters recalled Chaso Bodine, who was essentially a pro-criminal district attorney, but the vote was fairly close.
54
He ended up with 45% of the vote.
55
But as the situation continues to deteriorate here, and it will, voters will eventually be ready for radical change.
56
In New York, that radical change was electing a Republican prosecutor who'd broken the mob
57
and sent more than his fair share of Wall Street criminals to jail.
58
His strategy to fix New York traces its roots to an Atlantic Magazine article in 1982.
59
It was called Broken Windows by George Kelling and James Q.
60
Wilson.
61
Imagine a building where vandals have broken a window or two.
62
If those windows go unrepaired, it won't be long before they're all broken.
63
Then graffiti appears and soon the whole place turns into a mess.
64
The theory argues that small signs of disorder send a message that neglect is acceptable.
65
And that attracts more serious crime and bad behavior.
66
By cracking down on these small offenses, a sense of order is set, creating an environment where lawlessness is the norm, not the exception.
67
This idea fundamentally changes the approach to law enforcement, shifting focus from just reacting to major crimes to actively maintaining community standards.
68
Before Giuliani was even elected, Bill Bratton had come in to lead the New York Transit Police and he used the broken windows approach.
69
Small fixes like cleaning up graffiti and going after fair jumpers and vandals signaled that even minor offenses had consequences.
70
The result was a drastic drop in serious subway crime as well.
71
Soon after the election, Giuliani named Bratton as the police commissioner for the entire city.
72
Their first target, the squeegee men.
73
These were guys who'd come up to cars stopped at red lights and start cleaning the window, whether you wanted it or not.
74
Then they demanded money, which was really closer to a shakedown.
75
Now, people couldn't easily get away, and you worry about getting your car scratched up by this guy standing right outside.
76
For commuters coming into New York, This was often the first person they encountered in the city.
77
So police started arresting the squeegee men, who were then immediately released because there was no law against aggressive window cleaning.
78
There was, however, a law against jaywalking, and the police started arresting them for that.
79
And when they returned, they got arrested again until they literally were harassed out of traffic and disappeared from the city.
80
On one hand, it was a trivial move, but it signaled to all New Yorkers that order was returning to the city.
81
It also showed what would become a pattern to Rudy Giuliani, tenacity.
82
He didn't hold a press conference and whine that his hands were tied unless the city council passed an anti squeegee law.
83
He pushed through obstacles to get things done.
84
And cities are filled with obstacles to change.
85
Lifetime bureaucrats, powerful unions, wealthy special interests.
86
It takes determination and a lot of stubbornness to make things happen.
87
New York also did the opposite of defund the police, increasing the number of cops on the streets by a lot.
88
By contrast, when it was trendy in 2020,
89
the San Francisco mayor slashed $120 million from the police budget and redirected it to prioritizing investments in the African American community.
90
In New York, there were more cops and they were empowered.
91
They also used something called comp stat targeting to go after large and small crimes alike.
92
Open air drug markets were shut down and with that, the violent crime that came with them.
93
When they would make an arrest and find a guy with a gun on them, that was one less gun off the street and one less body off the street as well often.
94
They took a tough stance on the homeless.
95
You'd be arrested for public urination, or drinking, or aggressive panhandling.
96
Giuliani literally harassed bad behavior off of the streets.
97
And at the same time, the city increased shelter capacity and transitional housing.
98
Beyond crime, the key word with the rest of the Giuliani reforms was accountability.
99
City agencies were held responsible for results.
100
School administrators and teachers were held accountable to quantifiable measurements.
101
Welfare reform reduced dependency and encouraged self-sufficiency.
102
But all throughout, Giuliani was criticized.
103
A lot.
104
He was slammed by homeless advocates for violating civil liberties or pushing the problem off to other cities.
105
Critics argued that the police strategies unfairly targeted minorities and that the city criminalized poverty instead of addressing the systemic issues.
106
His hard-edged style made him a lot of enemies.
107
But when he was done, he transformed a city that people said was unmanageable.
108
Can San Francisco and today's cities copy that success?
109
I'm not really sure.
110
I do know there's a blueprint from recent history that they should take a very strong look at.
111
Thanks for watching.
112
I hope you come back again.

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
