      This isn’t about rural areas. Obviously no one’s expecting people on farms to go walk to a nearby store. But most people aren’t on farms.

        I’m not talking about farms, I’m talking about suburbs where most people do live.

          Then I go back to my previous statement because you’ve clearly never seen a nice little dutch suburb :)

            I’ve seen plenty of them. You’ve clearly never seen and/or can’t comprehend how spread out many countries are.

              You do know that much of the US was built on the rail network and plenty of cities had transit systems that were the envy of the world until they decided against those in favor of the car and bulldozed city centers for parking? You’re making it seem like this is impossible when it used to be the standard.

                And cars are still exponentially more convenient than back then. So yea the chances of people willfully going back to that is practically impossible.

                    If you think that’s just the US you are completely oblivious to the world around you.
