Maybe don't move somewhere that your job and kids school is hundreds of miles away? My child's school is down the street, and I can take the subway to work in about 15min. This was a specific choice my wife and I made when we chose to live here.

    Oh great, let's use privilege as a bludgeon to enforce the status quo. This is great and also happens to be indistinguishable from doing nothing.

    I'm saying your proposed solution is not possible.

    It's possible for billions today right now including millions in America. So maybe you should expand your understanding of what is possible instead of being a reactionary fighting change.

    Billions of people in the world live without cars. The possibilities of this don't need to be explained since they are actively occurring across the world. Within America there are ~10% of household that do not have a car. https://usa.streetsblog.org/2021/10/22/u-s-cities-have-more-car-free-households-than-you-think This is a good thing btw, and it should fully demonstrate that such a life is absolutlely possible, and could be improved and expanded.

    So you're saying that in areas which allow for people to live without cars, people live without cars, and this is why people who live in areas that DON'T allow for people to live without cars, should also live without cars? What?

    If the environment is designed solely for cars, you can't just ditch your car. And unless you're wealthy you can't just up and move.
