Comment Re: Seems like this mostly hurts rural/minority ar (Score 2) 169

As someone who grew up in a real area, the Corporation for Public Broadcasting is almost universally hated now. It is seen as pushing a radical leftist agenda from cities and elites who have no idea where their food, fuel, or products come from. Even the way you spoke about it â" this will hurt rural areas and minorities, they are so stupid and poor â" would be considered an example of how you implicitly think you are better than everyone else.

Austria is a great example of this model. I traveled through most of the country on Eurail and public transportation; only once did I need a taxi. They were intentional about it, starting in city centers. Granted I wasn't in a hurry, so I could wait half a day for a train in a small town. If I was a farmer or a local things might have been different.

If you live anywhere but the urban core, cars are a necessity. I live in a small city and most of my family are in suburbs or the countryside. Living without a car is a non-starter for every one of us. And in order to live in the urban core without a car⦠thousands of cars and trucks must deliver everything to the core.
