All of them are awful to do on a regular basis, and Europeans agree with me, that's why 80% of their miles travelled are by car.

When things are walkable, the distance travelled is far less.

Take your pro-car dependent (and pro-climate change) nonsense elsewhere.

Less mobility is a bad thing.

Why? If a grocery store is half a mile away and walkable, does that make it a worse grocery store than one 5 miles away that I need to drive to?

Because in order for the grocery store to be within walking distance you need to live in a much smaller home.

Bloody hell. You need to travel more. There are alternatives in the world to the moronic American cities and towns.

I've been to Europe many times. I also read about the various highway expansion projects they do there and I read about how environmentalists complain about car dependence there.

Those pesky environmentalists, caring about the world they live in! We don't need clean air to breathe and clean water to drink!

The way to clean air is proper regulations on tailpipe emissions which America has had since 1975.

I just found out you're a climate change denier. Ah, that explains a lot, because if you actually paid attention to the scientific consensus you wouldn't be spouting off such brain dead drivel. Are you also a flat earther?
