I agree in the abstract, but I think you need to meet people where they are. And most working poor in the US rely on cars. I like NJB, and haven’t seen ghoulish behavior from him. But most “urbanists” love making cars even more expensive for the poors, without really considering the consequences

Bike lanes: 👍👍

Public transit: 👍👍👍👍

Aggressive ticketing, increasing parking rates, no on street overnight parking, car taxes, etc: 👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎
