The premise is “wrong” -

you’re not going to “commute 50 minutes a day”.

You’re going to live in a “sustainable community” where you can walk to work. And making it impossible for you to commute is how we’re going to accomplish this goal.

"you’re not going to “commute 50 minutes a day”."

"You’re going to live in a “sustainable community” where you can walk to work."

Of course those with the education and skills can hop into their Bimmers and Mercedes and still drive, even with $10 gasoline! Or telecommute on days they don't need to be in the office for meetings.

But with no low-skill jobs, "sustainable community" = "high density - low income housing".

How did THAT "Great Society" fiasco work out? (google "Cabrini Green".)
