One only has to visit a less wealthy country (just cross the border to Mexico) where the fallacy of the article is evident when the average person’s salary is not enough to buy even a clunker and keep it running (fuel is damn expensive). And public transportation is used massively due to it being the only other option to getting around. “ mass transit, whether private or public, has generally been used mainly by an elite.” Please what? Has this person ever actually used public transportation? Just get your head out of your iPad and look around. And that’s just one example. I even doubt this holds generally true in the US.
This article is the author’s commentary about the lived experience of US residents. It’s incoherent to allege it’s fallacious because the lived experience in some other country isn’t the same.
You keep jumping from subthread to subthread, saying the same thing, and ignoring all responses to the assertion you are making. The lived experience of US residents is the result of policy choices over decades, and it would have been different if you hadn't allowed robber barons to set your transport and urban planning policy.
