To some people the question of "where do you put the cars?" is more important than the question "where do we house the people?"
It's bizarre.
I'm convinced that to many Americans, there's no difference, and that their mental image of a person includes four wheels. (And that a human without a car is not a person, as in, not deserving of moral comsideration.)
I'm convinced that many people who've never lived in the southern USA have absolutely no concept of how viable public transportation doesn't fucking exist, yet housing is typically 30-40 minutes from where business center locations are.
And that forces you to treat people without cars as sub-human? No sympathy, or even empathy, for people who have to navigate such a landscape without one?
What does your comment have to do with what I said? I genuinely do not understand what you are trying to correlate here...
