Nah, the majority of people like and want to be able to go anywhere whenever they want. It’s nice to have nice cities and nice public transport but you don’t need to get rid of cars for that. Some people have a weird fixation on having everyone live in giant cities with giant buildings with as much density as possible. That would bring its own issues and then you’d end up spending huge resources to try to fix those issues instead of maintaining the road infrastructure that gives people freedom.

Who said gettin rid of cars? We just said pricing their environmental and infrastructure costs appropriately, which is much, much higher than it currently is. The idea that cars bring freedom just happens because many countries happen to have atrocious public infrastructure. As a car owner in a city having a car is 95% of the time a pain in the ass and justifiably so.
