    The “preferences” of greedy, myopic takers must be disregarded in the face of reality, regardless of how politically difficult it is.

    On that we agree. All the more reason to invest in building out non-car infrastructure in more densely populated areas NOW, so that the ever increasing number of people who are being priced out of the suburbs have a quality, affordable alternative. I think that’s better than putting those very same people through unnecessary pain, under some misguided belief that it will cause them to push the government to do what the damn government should have just done in the first place.
