Most livable city is a plainly laughable concept

Our motto is live and let live. If the media thinks 'that the annual Most Livable City contest is worth reporting, fine. But to be kind, it's laughable. We don't even have to tell you the names of the winners of this silly exercise to make the point. It's enough to name the non-starters. That's right, Ciudad de Mexico and Gaza City were not on the list. Nor was Tripoli. The top ten cities were all nice, highly developed places with stable democratic governments and educated populations. Tell us how it could possibly be any other way?
