  1. I wouldn't mind that. They can work in rail.😊😊

  2. eclydian zoning doesn't allow for that either.

  3. Economics is woke??

  4.  @Joskemom  don't project your own miserable, misanthropic view on all humans. I love living in a dense since with close neighbours. American suburbs seem isolating and dull.
    6
  5. Yes, create mass homelessness because you don't like how buildings look. It's giving me... I'm privileged and stupid vibes.
    6
  6. True!
    5
  7. Too much urban sprawl is also bad.
    5
  8.  @rennatawilson9622  Yeah, if only there was a type of zoning that prioritised density and affordability over single use housing... only wait! there is. No shit, if you build high density structures that can house hundred at a time over a small suburban mcmansion then Yeah, you can in fact keep up with demand and population growth. Zoning is the problem, not population. Suburbs are unsustainable.

  9. Not really. Ever wonder why old European cities are densely populated and very compact. Go to Rome or Naples and tell me a city with that population and size is sprawled out.
    5
  10. Ever heard of soundproof walls? Most of the apartments in Europe have them. 😲😲😲😲

  11. Why?? Those people actually live in the city, suburbanites don't.
    4
  12.  @computernerdtechman  how many kids play in suburban streets??? be honest. most kids raised in suburbs spend their time indoors or asking their mother to shuttle them to the nearest mall which is usually an hours drive. No child is playing in asphalt.
    4
  13. The rest of us who can't afford R1 housing also lose out.
    4
  14. Lol!!!!😂😂🤣🤣
    4
  15. What about the rest of us who don't want to live in suburbia? Euclidean zoning strictly prohibits mixed use development and favours suburban development. It's one thing to have a preference in housing, it's another to force it onto the rest of the populous. Mixed use development should be the future.
    4
  16. Nope! We want zoning to be mixed use. Simple!
    4
  17. I LOVE the idea of car free spaces in cities. It doesn't have to be the entire city just walkable areas and green spaces. Car dependency makes cities inefficient and ugly.
    3
  18. And unsustainable.
    3
  19. Yeah!!!

  20. living in an ugly subdivision and having to drive everywhere for basic things, is NOT a luxury, it certainly isn't for the environment that is destroyed to create such a place. Apartments and townhouses offer privacy, last time i checked you can A: own your apartment, B: haved pets in that apartment and C: decorate it the way you would like. many suburbs have HOA's that literally dictate the way your lawn has to look and the colour of your house, some are much stricter. Parks exist in dense urban areas so your pets can walk around there too.

  21. Source??
    3
  22. Nope! It's the root of the problem.

  23. Except most americans can't really afford it. Ever wonder why debt is sooo high in america? According to a study done by Harvard business school, poverty in suburbia has doubled in the past 10 years out pacing than of the inner cities. Not to mention most millennials and gen z can't really afford the suburban American dream, at least without a predatory loan. Mixed use zoning is the future.
    3
  24. It really says a lot.
    3
  25. We do it when we want to fight wars. 🙄🙄🙄🙄
    3
  26. Nope! It was never sustainable to begin with.
    3
  27. That sounds great!!
    3
  28. They don't seem to see the contradiction.
    3
  29. Good! Cities are for the people that live in them! Not cars or suburbanites. Suburbs are financially inefficient and costly.
    3
  30. Yeah, because kids in east Asia and Europe that live in mixed zoning spaces frequently get killed by trucks. Make a sense!😒😒😒
    3
  31. They contribute to it
    3
  32. There are many.

  33. He mentioned segregation once and all of a sudden the entire video is "whites bad". Yikes! Someone is clearly paranoid.
    3
  34.  @DoubleBob  there is LITERALLY NOTHING "anti white" about this video! Criticising segregation is not anti white.
    3
  35. R1 zoning and suburbia encourage urban sprawl which is far more destructive to the environment.
    3
  36. What about the rest of us who hate R1 zoning and can't afford to live in suburbia? You know, most millennials and gen z. Your preference shouldn't dictate mine.
    2
  37. Except in Europe and Asia, where children tend to be happier, healthier and safer. 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
    2
  38.  @swazfincklestein1226  how???
    2
  39. Many still are though.
    2
  40. 🤣🤣😂😂
    2
  41. Ever heard of trains, trams and buses??? You wouldn't have to walk everywhere. Why do people automatically equate less cars with more walking? Mass transit exists and is awesome.
    2
  42.  @rennatawilson9622  most people affected by housing shortages are American citizens, mainly millenuals, minorities and genZers. Single family zoning is a national problem!!!
    2
  43.  @rennatawilson9622  and what about the poor millenuals struggling in those same red states?? 🤔🤔🤔
    2
  44.  @rennatawilson9622  NO! We don't all struggle, and we shouldn't have to, to get basic needs.
    2
  45. Um... have you seen Barcelona?? It doesn't have a highway and the roads aren't more than 3 lanes.
    2
  46. Yup!!
    2
  47. Nope! Then it wouldn't be a city.
    2
  48. Too bad it's destroying the environment, bankrupting cities and is completely unsustainable.
    2
  49.  @malbowz1257  what socialist policies, please name one you moron. Suburbs pay less tax and contribute less to the economy in terms of growth. They cost more to maintain, especially when they sprawl and extend for miles. They're destructive to the environment and actually cause more pollution than cities. I'll send you a video explaining it, if your open minded.

    2
  51. how?
    2
  52. Really??? Since when.
    2
  53. Ever heard of MASS TRANSIT??? Your problem is car congestion and guess what? That isn't going to get better by adding more lanes, if you think otherwise... ask L.A and Houston. 🙄😐😐
    2
  54. Crazy trump supporters alert!!!!
    2
  55. You sound deranged.
    2
  56. That's why the urban population is set to explode, because no one wants to live in cities.🙃🙃
    2
  57. What?????
    2
  58. Not everyone can and is able to live in a suburb, not do they want to. R1 can stay but there should be more mixed use development. That's the main issue here, not R1 bad but R1 is literally the only housing allowed to none developed, over 85% in some cities/towns alone.
    2
  59.  @alicewalton7821  but... they are. If your only option is R1 or an expensive condo then you are literally being forced to live in a single family unit. If you are only given the choice between an apple and a pear, it's not all that diverse is it.
    2
  60. The name given to India when it was under British colonial rule.
    2
  61. So everyone should live in the exact same type of housing? Screw diversity of housing and development, lets all live in shitty, soulless suburbs. If I were conservative I'd be screaming, ComMuLiSm!!!!!
    2
  62.  @stickmouse5002  🤣🤣😂😂
    2
  63. Why?? Sprawl IS terrible and ugly.
    2
  64. Change is good.
    2
  65. I HOPE so, fuck car dependency.
    2
  66. Such as where? Suburbia lacks either of those things.
    2
  67.  @DoubleBob  you mean like the time trump supporters stormed the capital in a bid to overturn the election and kill politicians? 🤔🤔🤔
    2
  68. They really are. 😯😯🤢🤢
    2
  69. American suburbs are ugly and let's face it, not all that private. You can literally see into your neighbours drive way and a lot of modern suburbs are congested. You are living like a sardine in a can, just one filled with a patch of fake looking grass.
    2
  70.  @davejoseph5615  hell Yes, look at Europe.
    2
  71. Nope!
    1
  72. I hate the way American cities look and are structured.
    1
  73. yup!!!

  74. Same goes for Kenya.

  75. Have you ever heard of a train, tram or bus????👀👀👀👀
    1
  76. Nah.
    1
  77. Cool.
    1
  78. People want to live in cities, they just simply can't afford to. Not everyone wants to live in a boring, sterile, car dependant suburb.
    1
  79. American cities/ suburbia, are ugly non places! they have no character outside of cheap fast food joints, large big box stores and a sea of asphalt. 🤢🤢🤮🤮

  80. What??
    1
  81. 💯💯💯
    1
  82. Yikes!!!

  83. Mostly corporations and private developers.

  84. 😻😻

  85. 8:48 looks nice.
    1
  86. It's the graveyard where all happiness and joy goes to die. American suburbs are like a cancer.
    1
  87. That's fine, them stop using inner cities to subsidise your lifestyle. Most of the funds that are used to develop suburban housing come from inner cities, e.g sewage, roads, drainage etc.
    1
  88. How is that cities with mass transit and higher density, Tokyo, Amsterdam, Vienna, Paris, London etc are able to get goods at a much lower price, especially Tokyo?
    1
  89.  @GeorgeLiquor  Tokyo has a much lower cost of living than all the major cities in America. And China, which is much larger than the U.S also utilizes mass transit and rail.

  90. Lol!🤣🤣😂😂 how So?
    1
  91. 🤣🤣😂😂👏👏👏
    1
  92. Eewww!!
    1
  93. Why??
    1
  94. Are you serious, go follow the page segregation by design or cars ruin cities to see the before. These cities were a million times better before highways destroyed them.
    1
  95. 🤣🤣😂 you're kidding, right??
    1
  96. Yes, Marxism is when rich developers and firms buy housing to rent them for a lot of money, and the more houses they buy, the more communist it is.🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♀️
    1
  97. No one, other than north America wants sprawl.
    1
  98. Yup!!!
    1
  99. it should be both!
    1
  100. Good for you.
    1
  101. Nope!
    1
  102.  @vincetagliano9910  um... because there aren't that many.🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️
    1
  103. And now they are flooding back in and gentrifying the neighbourhoods.
    1
  104. Um... the large sky scrapers in London are just office buildings... Not housing. What are you talking about?
    1
  105. I'm sorry to hear that.
    1
  106. What?
    1
  107. it absolutely does!
    1
  108. Yup! That happens alot in the U.S.
    1
  109. Yup!
    1
  110. You're missing out on a lot of beautiful cultures and history.
    1
  111. I actually like them.
    1
  112. I don't want to live in an ugly mcmansion in the middle of a dull and soul sucking neighbourhood. But guess what, unlike you I don't to force my preference on other people by enforcing zoning laws to favour my suburban dream model. Mixed use housing development allows both to exist.
    1
  113. Yikes!!!!!
    1
  114. And yet, they're still better than north American cities. Wow!!!
    1
  115. People live in cities and guess what maintaines suburbia... cities!!
    1
  116. Why is that??
    1
  117. I love cats.
    1
  118. Yup!!
    1
  119. That's true.
    1
  120. Yup! it truly is heinous.

  121. why?
