They’re saying they don’t care about the cheaper segments and are just going to sell expensive vehicles. I don’t know what those of us who can’t afford 60k vehicles are expected to do for transit though… I suspect this is a ploy to get the American government to subsidize an affordable car range.

Force your City or government to improve public transit options.

Have you seen the size of most US states?

All of England could fit in Alabama (they're practically the same size). And it's in the lower half of state sizes.

Great Britain would fit in, I don't know, Missouri?

It takes sixteen western OECD countries to equal the land mass of the US.

Do you comute going from NY to LA? No right, so what's the point?

Doesn't matter if you live in USA or Switzerland, a city is a city, of course suburban sprawl doesn't help, but this has nothing to do with the size of the country
