I'm sick of the planners and their schemes. Who in the hell made them the arbiters of what is "smart"? I hate their ugly-ass neighborhoods, where all the houses are identical, and everybody drives the same crappy minivan. The most practical and aesthetically pleasing neighborhoods are the ones that just sort of happened over the years, spontaneously, influenced only by the free market. But n-o-O-o, we can't have that! The poor benighted yokels are too ignorant to decide how they want to live! We must have a bunch of Elsworth M. Tooheys to dictate to us what is "smart".
The reason the suburbs are as user-unfriendly as they are is because of over-planning, not lack of planning.
