Status in City Hall is all about what you can make happen or stop from happening. Sure, it's easiest to enact change if you sit on the city council, but it's also enough to have a city councilor in your back pocket. Politicians in Philadelphia are, as a rule, available for purchase or for rent at modest prices. They depend heavily on the local trade unions and land developers, allowing each to profit off the exploitation of Philadelphia's working class and the gentrification of its poorest neighborhoods. Status in Philadelphia's government can rise and fall overnight as elections, criminal investigations, investigative journalism, and the voice of the people all seek to right the listing ship of city hall.
