And the health savings compound the benefits of cycling/walking/public transit too. If only we could adequately assess real value by learning maths, we'd all be pushing for the clearly better options. We don't all need to insist on owning our own SUV EV's... Electric bikes/scooters sure, but not trucks and sedans. We should look at Tokyo and recognize eventually we'll need to get sensible too. Inevitably we can't just consume at this rate just for personal ownership of appliances used for only an hour or two per day. It makes no sense at all.

@wingracer1614 the USA was built for cars, it can be rebuilt for transportation. Everyone would be richer in the long run, cars foneum tons of individual productive labour investment, we just suck as costing things over longer time frames but that doesn't mean it's impossible, just that it will take time - just like it took time to build the USA as is.
