I've read a bit about the Broken Window theory and how it applied to NYC. Some people have the ability to see how a problem is solved without the trouble of evaluating the whole path to the solution. By that, I mean, it goes against most people's intuition that cleaning up a community does more for it than preventing the overflow (crime, vandalism, etc.)

It's interesting that much of NYC's problem was solved by doing what Hamilton has begun to do - take aim at the communities with Garbage Crawls and involvement initiatives.
