29. Oh come on.
I want to hear what his solution to the "car CULTure" is. What you state is the most obvious scenario, but I have yet to hear one solution from the man, just the nonstop iteration of "cars are evil". He says we must get rid of cars. I want to hear what his transition plan is.

It's easy to sneer from the sidelines. It's more difficult to provide workable alternatives.

Hell, my 10 year old son made the (astute) observation to me a couple weeks ago, that if our communities were smaller, and arranged around places that people work, people wouldn't need to drive most of the time. That's not a concept that requires a genius.

NNadir keeps saying that we should get rid of the "car culture". I've yet to see him propose any alternatives.
