Yes, I think we've all been through those issues before. This might be a slightly different way of looking at it... http://petermcgurk.blogspot.co.uk/2013/01/standing-up-for-anfield-redevelopment.html
Admire you for sticking your head out on this one, it's extremely emotive because of our history. Having read your posts over the years, you've often voiced (at least I think you have) the need for tickets at affordable prices for people of the city. And as we know, those people are increasingly being priced out of seeing games.
I did a paper round in Warrington as a kid. Was an hour a day, 7 days a week and I used to get £9 for it. Was the biggest round at the shop, and the best paid. This was 87-90. I can't remember how much a Kop ticket was in those days, but thats when I started going on my own with mates. Think I got 2 pounds off each of my grandads as well. This isn't supposed to be misty eyed nostalgia, the point is at that age, I could afford to go to the game, get a ticket and stand on the Kop.
20 odd years on, I can't help think the only way we're going to get a new generation of youngsters to support the club withe same passion and excitement, is to start getting kids like me from Liverpool and the all the other wooly surrounding areas, is by getting tickets right down in price and accessible. Some of the economic stuff Peter has posted on here show that we just can't build an 85,00-90000 seater stadium and charge at tenner for the Kop and the nosebleed seats and make it work financially. The costs of that stadium are just too high.
Safe standing is the only answer that I can see. Controversial as it may be, I think of any club in the league if someone is goign to go down that route it should be us first. I think I recently saw that half a dozen premier league clubs were seriously looking at it. It'll stir some pretty intense debate I'd have thought, but it just might be the thing that keeps Liverpool FC something special for the next few generations.
