What do you mean they aren’t interesting in filling those places?

depends on where you are, tbf
On top of that, the pricing restrictions make it hard for the neediest to qualify.
lastly, its not public housing. We need public housing, and hta housing has to be taken care of:
e-bikes have increasingly gained wide adoption because of concerns like yours, people are making longer commutes due to the longer range ebikes are capable of. it's not so different from kids riding behind a motorcycle. I've mentioned before in this thread that multi-modal transportation is also an option for long distance commutes.
nothing is being imposed, people are suggesting new infrastructure be built and public transportation be improved.

right, there's always another country that did it better. but i'm just trying to see how this works here with the government we have (who are never held accountable) and the voters we have (people who'd vote out obamacare, a plan that benefitted them, because they don't like no damn socialist). i'm always for better, but i need practical examples of how america makes this happen, not other countries that are more homogenous, smaller, have stricter governments or have a history of being further left than the us.
in some areas, it just isn't.
I've already said it, but I wish I could not drive, i fukking hate driving but it's a necessary

underrated part of your comment.
This country will always have seeds of distrust, due to instinctual tribalism. It's easy to point to Scandinavian or Asian countries as examples, when you don't realize they are 99.9% homogenous (thus more open to socialists principles).
You can tell what few possible cities nikkas live in to be writing bullshyt like this
Most American cities don't even come close to having decent enough public transportation to make cars obsolete, and ride sharing ain't that convenient outside of major cities
Ride sharing is also deceptively expensive

people like you/with your take post as if people should be doing this now. i can point to oakland we're we've made decisions for that "now" without having fully put in place alternatives.
and even with infrastructure in place, things are still so widely spaced out in many metros, this walk and bike to everything uptoia is realistic for them?
you have examples?
This is the big thing. People comparing new cities like NY to Rome and shyt that have been around for millenia
No, it wasn't. European countries are tiny. The difference in population density is massive.Lmao
AMERICA was built like these European cities not even 100 years ago.
Of course this myth of “it works in old Europe” was gonna come up here eventually.

thats why people are arguing for increased public transportation, it's not an accident or oversight that the state of public transportation is the way it is in some places. people should study how things came to be in their area because 9/10 theres big monied interests that screwed communities over.

Yeah with work from home, Uber and being able to have anything from food to women delivered to you def made owning a vehicle way less important. I don’t own a vehicle and don’t have any issues. All my groceries are dropped off at my front door. While Amazon can have stuff dropped of in hours
The nerve of you to still be posting like this after getting schooled.Imagine claiming that public transit and bike lanes is some kind of anti-black, pro-gentrification conspiracy as if black communities weren’t destroyed and impoverished precisely to make room for car infrastructure, brehs.
You should at least have the decent to respond and engage with my post where I answered your question and used sources.
Instead you’re subbing like some kind of inarticulate coward.
