“It’s not like the government is forcing you to buy a car!”

If you live in a city with parking minimums, yes they fucking are.

    So move out of the city 🤷

    Public transport is famously existent in the countryside.

      Move to the country if you want to drive everywhere then. Leave cities for people who actually value the density they’re supposed to provide.

      uh, yes? here in sweden we have public transport literally everywhere, if you don’t have a proper scheduled line near you you will instead have access to what is effectively an optimized taxi service, where you just book a trip an hour in advance and it runs on the same ticket as the rest of the public transport network.

        It’s someone who doesn’t know what sub they’re in; this sub is for those living in NYC, LA, SF, and Chicago only. I’m guessing they live in the tiny sliver of the United States that isn’t one of those four cities, hence their confusion.
