Unironically, this is the argument I use when discussing urbanism with skeptical American conservatives.
Needs like three more fonts.
This is my kind of propaganda
It's a $12k a year tax that most Americans don't have a choice but to pay in order to get to their jobs that they hate. They never had a chance to vote on it, it was just thrust on them, and it rises every year to match inflation. And that doesn't even include the cost of maintaining local infrastructure that gas taxes don't go towards.
And yet we continue to build car-dependent cities.
In my little rural town there were so many people who lost their license that they had to go and privatize all the roads so people could drive their ATVs to the liquor store and drop their kids off at school.
true. im all for deregulating car use :)
