No, because there aren't any businesses which pay a livable wage within walking distance of 98% of Americans. yay logic!
They're agreeing with y'all tho?
"Yay logic!" means they think it's dumb logic.
That's exactly their point though? The people who argue for cars argue that they're necessary because US cities aren't walkable, while conveniently ignoring that that's entirely due to the auto industry and that making cities more walkable is still an option. They're pointing out how fucked that logic is.
If that's not what they're saying, then they're a terrible communicator as well as an idiot.
Ugh, that's what I get for having faith in people
So let's make it so that cities are easily traversable without cars!
And in 80 years we might get the report from the committee about the proposal to create a committee to study the feasibility of possibly allowing four story homes.
Oh, wait, no, some NIMBY killed it.
True but this really has little to do with the excessive noise issues. Really easy to build quieter cars, we just let assholes choose how loud they want to be and the results are predictable.
