The Magical Pill

People often find the magical pill tough to sallow. The current violent virus is upon them.. Only after 110 years of domination. We can clearly seen the devastation it has left.

America diverts their food supply to fuel automobiles, with subsides. Pays billions in subsides to allow Americans to buy more cars, and companies even more money to fail. However it is not just the federal governments. We can clearly see from Wiscsion   the civil rights they violated no one is safe.
They will often deny it, in order not to succumb. Yet the evidence never surrenders a different picture.
Study: 10% More Smart Growth = 20% Less Driving

As a person who is car free, and can only get around by bicycle, walking and transit. I can attest anywhere is walkable. However, it is a very defined space which mixes all of your destinations into a small corridor. Hence your smart growth. However smart growth already exists we just need to make it smarter.

We have very small commercial pockets all over this country, we just need denser neighborhoods. The easiest approach requires building nothing at all. Simply allow residents to have multiple families in a dwelling  .
A  three bedroom one bath house. Comfortably holds three households (3 adults). We don't need to build anything just change the zoning laws. I live 3 miles from everything I could want. If we applied this concept just to my block with 20 homes that is an extra 60 people.

Real americans are no longer looking for the next oil change. We are looking for real change.  I don't want to spend 20% my paycheck on a new car. Why should I fill up my tank when I can fill up my belly and pedal off to the store? Its ok to say you want something different,  by boycotting everything they throw down your throat.

The magical pill is eventually swallowed by everyone. Unless you have money to throw down the endless road. The unsustainable virus finds you down on your luck, out of time, unable to perform, and or broke.  Smart growth there for when your born, till the day you die. Never lets you down and always ready to pick you up!
