Man, I'm crippled. You've entirely missed the point.
The concept here is the entire way a city or community is laid out and designed.
You wanna see a solution to your problem?
Look at any city that currently exists that has at least half decent public transit, or town where its reasonably safe to walk to common places you'd need to go.
There are tons of these, by the way, places that have figured out how to do this.
You're mad that you live in a poorly designed and poorly funded exurb area.
Howabout this?
Sell your inconviently located home, at the current market rate, and move to somewhere that doesn't have these problems.
What, is too much of your net worth tied up in your home?
Wow! How did that happen?
I wonder why your community is built in such a way that that could happen... maybe decades and decades of giving handouts to homeowners and driving up their prices and requiring everything else in reality bend over backwards to subsidize them... has maybe just completely proven to be fundamentally economically unviable, with infrastructure needing to be spread too far and thin, constantly being subsidized by the urban core areas that generate the vast majority of jobs and tax revenue?
If that doesn't make sense...
I'm sorry.
In addition to your physical ailments...
You also have terminal car brain. Yes, it's fatal.
All that text and not an ounce of empathy, this place really is turning into Reddit 2.0. But no true Scotsman, Right?
"Look at any city that currently exists that has at least half decent public transit, or town where its reasonably safe to walk to common places you'd need to go.". I live in one of those, and it is still prohibitive as fuck, so you will probably just say something like "Well, not there, I meant somewhere like Japan", and buddy, been there too.
You're like the people who sees someone with depression and just tells them "Just go to therapy, they'll fix you".
