My hometown is so insular that I don't like it. A couple of days ago I
heard someone who once worked in my town saying, "I don't want to go
back there,.." I agreed.
The press seem only to focus on the soundness
of the local public finance while talking about the local town.
Rather, I

town. In Osaka the mayor struggles to unite its governmental activities
to cut its burden and will take a vote. The problem is not to agree or
not, but for such a reform to impress the residents favorably or not.
私の故郷は保守的な土地柄で正直好きじゃないが、私の故郷で昔働いたという人と話していた時も、「あそこ（私の故郷）へは二度と行きたくない」と言ってい
た。共感した。地方を語るとき、財政や行政サービスについて論点が多い。ここで提案だが、「好感度」で自治体を評価してみてはどうだろうか。都構想も一度
やってみて、「好感度」が上がるかどうかで評価すべきだと思う。行政コストが高いか低いかはあまり関係ないと思うのだが。
