I never wrote anything about cars in my post and I challenge you to prove otherwise.

In terms of “Americans needing their cars to live”, that is BS. The United States existed for nearly 200 years without cars. The US built its current way of life based on the automobile and cheap oil.

Choices were made and now you live with the consequences.

The layout of cities in the US could and would be much different under different circumstances.

Your myopia is astounding considering you have experience living in a different country.

I never said you wrote anything about cars. But you're a global warming nut and they are one of the primary reasons the US has much higher “greenhouse gas” emissions than Europe so I mentioned them. I live just fine. I don't like spending $ 60.00 to fill my tank, but fortunately I live in the US where I can easily afford it.

“The United States existed for nearly 200 years without cars.”

And to revert to that state will bring us right back where we were then - up to our ears in horseshit.
