It isn't alas just a question of personal convenience. Think of how much of the U.S. economy is tied up with the auto industry and highway construction industries and what the death of the suburbs will do to the values of homes in which so much of Americans' personal wealth is tied up.
USA suburbs are extremely sprawled out. i can't imagine how they will exist without cars.
it seems to me that we are in for some very radical changes to everything we know.
