    God I wish. I live in an American city, so it’s too dangerous to walk along the 4 lane stroad to get to the grocery store a block away

      When I look at those neat American suburb grids and imagine to be a shop owner, I would love to put my store directly into the grid. Is it just not allowed to have a shop in those neighborhoods? Isn’t that anti-capitalist lol?

        Suburbs without cars are food deserts. No shops, no public transit. Only single family homes, schools and pedophile shuffling services (churches). If I had to walk to buy any food (even fast food) it would be a 45 minute trip minimum.
