This is going to be really hard problem for the US to work on. Can you imagine Americans voting to have their cars taxed more, just because they are successful and can afford a nice, big car? Maybe in one state, but not the other 49.
Maybe the part about closing off parts of cities to make them safely walkable will be more successful.
