Because the amenities you require are geographically close enough to not necessitate a car. I don’t know what the population density is where you live, but if it’s a city, there’s obviously going to be public transit to make that happen at least somewhat efficiently.
And yeah, the cities that don’t have effective public transportation, or just have unattractive public transportation (i.e. “its too crowded,” “I don’t want to be around this many people,” etc.) are the places where you’ll find more traffic on the road. In a rural setting though, it comes down to a low population density and much broader geographical ranges. I’d imagine that makes public transportation really inefficient, and in the eyes of local government, fiscally untenable.

I think you misunderstood. I’m fully agreeing with you.
Nah, too many tankies and terminally-online armchair political theorists on this instance. It’s actually fucking disgusting.
That’s entirely not feasible for anyone living a typical life with errands to run and places to go, and you know it.
I’m not the guy you’re replying to, but I lived in a city for four years. I found it miserable, and it’s not for everyone. In fact I’d argue that you seemingly advocating for us to live in one big sprawl is the dystopian poor take here.
Knew it would be a matter of time before the fuck_cars crowd popped in. Not everywhere is a city, and I work potentially all over the state. I also have equipment and gear I have to bring to the job. I actually need a vehicle.
Meanwhile you flood lemmy instances with anti-LGBT memes. Gtfo clown 😂
It was named after the Scotsman that developed it. Furthermore, I’ve never seen it used in any practical application here in the US.
My initial impression of this instance is that Lemmy.ml is a short step away from Lemmygrad.

I’m sure you have a good reason to be frustrated, but come on now.

That’s unfortunately as good as it gets in today’s world, unless you want to keep using CDs and DVDs like it’s 2004. Your call.
Lol? If you’re in NJ, and you want to smoke weed, Johnny Law in the DEA isn’t going to kick down your door and stop you.
The cops here can smoke weed. There are literally no arrests for recreational amounts now.
Recreational is completely legal in NJ. To the point where employers cannot make a decision to hire or fire based on your cannabis use unless they can provide hard evidence that you were using on the job.
You just can’t cross state lines with any amount.
I hated that shit as a kid too.
