Fuck cars, they're the biggest scam we ever fell for - and people are just realizing it now as both the cost of cars and infrastructure to support all these cars continue to bankrupt our country and force us to take loans from China to pay for it all. We cannot get a handle on the national debt until we stop subsidizing cars - and that means accepting that this whole idea of creating sprawl instead of cohesive traditional towns and neighborhoods was a bad idea in the first place and destined to make us poor, isolated, and short on time. Cars can exist but we can't build a civilization, and certainly nothing like the America we all remember, when you set your development up as strip malls and sprawl houses, 6 lane stroads and expressways, all costing billions of dollars, instead of building smaller walkable neighborhoods with a mix of parks, small slow streets, local stores, elementary schools and churches like this country built it's entire history up until about the 60's
Sprawl-type development basically plays right into globohomo's plans to both destroy our country and make a profit while doing it. These companies build with publicly-traded corporations which are owned by blackrock+vanguard, they own the highway construction companies, they own the car companies, they own the big box stores and even the chain restaurants. They set this thing up so they have total control, as opposed to a small town which was built by the local people, who built what they could, who carved out spaces for stores and local shops, the baker, the butcher, etc. they built civic buildings often surrounded by or anchored by a central park or square. The houses near the square had very small yards. The streets were small which calmed traffic and made them safe for kids and elderly to walk on. There was no 'woosh' of speeding cars driving by. Neighbors shook hands. Grandma lived down the street, or in a little apartment out back in the garden. Your church was a few blocks away and you walked there and back on Sunday with your family. Kids walked to school or to sports or rode their bikes. That was America.
Just trying to show you how not only has our country fallen in terms of morality and degeneracy, but that we actually now construct what is a degraded environment in which to live - an environment that plays right into the hands of those who hated traditional America and which fosters this self immolation we continue to suffer under.
Until we change the way we build our country we will have a hard time making it truly Great again - the road of globohomo sprawl is the road to hyper consumerism, and whether we're riding around it in a gas powered car or an electric one we are still trapped in the perpetual maze which has been so precisely laid out for us.
There are too many people now for that to work. For one thing, we don't have enough room for all the new towns that would have to be built from scratch.
BTW, I live within walking distance of the church I attend, the school my wife attended, and a corner store and a couple of restaurants. But I have a huge yard.
More than one model can work.
I would challenge you on something, the idea that there's not enough room for all the new towns... or something like that. So do you think the wasteful development pattern of sprawl is somehow taking less land than a series of compact and walkable towns + neighborhoods?
Seems like I'm talking over your head, but next time you walk around to those areas then realize that they don't exist anymore as a development pattern, and you are living in a remnant of a pre-sprawl or early-sprawl development pattern. Now the problem has metastasized and is choking both our towns as well as swallowing up our countryside, turning it all over on a silver platter to the god of Globohomo.
You don't understand what I said. If all the people in the "urban sprawl" had to be moved into separate towns, it would take more room. Small towns traditionally had much larger yards than you see in the "urban sprawl." This was for privacy, gardening, chickens, or outbuildings like a shop or storage building. In my own example, my house is on about an acre with two buildings for chickens, a greenhouse, and an outhouse (not currently sitting over a hole of course). The other yards in my neighborhood are similar in size. BTW, there is actually a butcher within walking distance.
BTW, the "choking" you mentioned is happening up north. Here in the South, there are miles and miles of countryside between towns. Many people in my town hate going to Walmart because it's so far away. There's actually farmland between the Walmart and the town, and there's a super sized windmill farm (one of the largest on the east coast) across the highway from the Walmart and that has crops planted between the windmills.
So yes, people could be crammed a lot tighter than they are, but that's what the elite want. They want people stacked up in high rises and to keep the rest of the land for themselves. I think towns like mine exists currently is close to ideal, and changing the "urban sprawl" to be like this would take more land. And in most areas, it would be farmland that would be sacrificed.
I hear what you're saying - I'm in agreement that it's nice to have these traditional towns. And I totally reject high-rise tower living as inhuman and unnatural. But I think we build sprawl everywhere instead of traditional towns, even with small lots smaller than suburban sprawl or the same size anyway, but the stuff is arranged differently not along collector roads + culde sacs, more on a traditional street grid pattern.... it's hard to explain but maybe this will help, you'll see how an out of control federal bureaucracy was responsible for creating the beast known as sprawl: https://youtu.be/d9vDcfH03gs
