I know this is meant in the spirit of good advice
but I hope people from the US consider the fact that your city/town planners destroyed your liveable areas to make America car dependent
And honestly it wasn't that long ago, it bankrupts your cities and costs everyone
- nerdponx 4y agoWe know, but what can we do?
- kevviiinn 4y agoVote and go to local city hall meetings

- hirvi74 4y agoI would, but I can't find parking, no way to walk there, and my city lacks robust and/or safe public transit. (I'm being facetious for those unaware).
- kevviiinn 4y agoIt's almost like there are systemic issues that keep certain subsets of the population from participating effectively. Weird huh
- pascalxus 4y agoWe are well aware of it and extremely unpleased with that. They force everyone to drive a minimum of 2-4 miles to get to the closest store and chances are it's a stupid mcDonalds or some other nonsense like that. i really don't know what they were thinking. it's almost as if the car industry paid off the city planners. I know early in US history the car industry bought up trains and put them out business which is despicable. You'll see this huge mass of houses crammed together like some kind of concentration camp. and it'll be endless miles of uniform houses like pods in the matrix. no libraries, no parks, no trees, no community compost, (none of these things have to be expensive) nothing. but lots and lots of pavement. some of those side streets are I'm not kidding you like 5 almost 6 lanes wide, meanwhile people's front yard is less than 10 feet long. It's a complete unmitigated disaster.
- pxmpxm 4y agoI'm pretty sure large developed country/ low population per unit of area did that. Pick any city and drive an hour in any cardinal direction and you'll find woods and racoons.
