    In a political climate where you could actually implement UBI, you would also be able to implement walkability policies.

    Also, e-bikes. E-bikes is where it’s at.

      Yeah e bikes aren’t even allowed on the roads for now. The walkability problem is a matter of the billions and billions of dollars it would take to essentially redo every road in the county. Some zoning changes could help a little but we’re generations of work away from being walkable

      Yeah not in rural areas, we need cars.

        Rural areas, sure. Suburban and urban where the majority of humans live, no.
