What they wish ain't what they get... People live where they do for a reason. If you make the cost of gas prohibitive, they will find alternatives, but they won't move... (Any politician who is connected with $4.00 plus gas prices ain't gonna last anyway. Even Democrats like living where they do!)

“People live where they do for a reason. If you make the cost of gas prohibitive, they will find alternatives, but they won’t move...”

I like my job and also my home. I happen to drive 30 miles each way to work. (Both would be hard to replace).

If they engineer the price of gas to $9/gallon, I’ll telecommute, work at the closer local offices or spend a couple of nights a week at a local hotel near my work.

But I am not going to move to a “Walkable” city. I grew up in a place like that and have worked very hard to get away from there.

People in places like that have a tendency to make their problems, your problems.Where I live everyone is friendly and doesn’t bother you.

Walkable city, NO THANKS.
