They Hate Your Cars

Have you traveled in Europe? Have you noted how European housing is clustered around public transportation lines, how suburbs as we know them are seldom seen?

The DrsC have seen it repeatedly. Europe is a nice place to visit occasionally but we wouldn't want to live there.

You have heard criticism of Obama's drive to make the U.S. more like Europe. Force yourself to read this rather dry National Review article by Stanley Kurtz about the Obama HUD department pushing zoning plans of "regions" in a clearly European direction.

This is what happens when you let urban planners design your life. Urban planners hate your cars. Their ideas are ugly stuff - very anti-American and pro-European.
