You say "vast" but we have to outlaw non-car options and legislate that only car options are allowed for nearly all our land.

If we were to even legalize non-car options, we might discover what the market actually wants. And the necessity of those laws kind of shows that the non-car option must be legally suppressed to prevent its true market preference from being revealed.

To everyone who thinks that the "vast majority" of people prefer driving, I say: show the confidence of your convictions and make it legal to build other options.

> legalize non-car options

What do you mean by that? Which non-car options are outlawed?

Dense walkable neighborhoods like you'd find in most parts of Europe.
