Do you work at missing the point? or does it come naturally?
First of all, a corvette is not a basic necessity, as housing is.
Price of homes in certain areas have increased 30-fold, and all of the increases are due to laws that have provided no added value to real planning, or real quality of life.
Even Corvettes have not increased in price 30X.
As for traffic, you are evidently not familiar with Governor moonbeam, and his genius approach to traffic: don't maintain or build roads and Voila! no traffic problems!
