I'm a strong proponent of decentralised planning of society and subsidised costs of local infrastructure to facilitate car free lifestyles. Part of the current mess is almost certainly due to the low cost of transportation and society pushing the cost onto future generations, but people literally can't live car free in some areas of the world right now and you need to pony up the dough to fix infrastructure etc. first before people can give up their cars. Otherwise you exacerbate an ongoing socioeconomic divide between the rich and the poor. Hence, people overestimate how easy it is for others to live car free.
