Except moco is a city, dumba$$.

You clowns keep trying to turn suburbia into a concrete jungle like NYC, when it will never work. So yea, it will take 4 hours to do a handful of errands it'd take 45 minutes to do by car because you could never build busses, trains and bike paths to cover the whole area and have the system running with minimal waiting times while having it be economically viable.  Such delusional nonsense.

I need to take fluffy to the vet, get a gallon of milk, and drop stop at FedEx to drop a package off for delivery. Lol, good luck doing that by bus.  Hope you got 6 hours to piss away.[/quote]

So there are actually a lot of neighborhood shopping centers that have grocery stores, vets, and/or shipping storefronts, in walking distance of where a lot of people live, right here in Montgomery County. It also seems foolishly time-consuming and wasteful to transport yourself all the way to the store by SUV, and then transport yourself and a gallon of milk back home by SUV, unless the store is very close by, in which case it's...in walking distance!

But everything is always impossible when a person is bound and determined to make it impossible.[/quote]

No sense reasoning with these anti-growth NIMBYs, they only care about their own way of life and expect us to pay for it.[/quote]

MoCo is almost double the land area of NYC with 1/8th or so the population, yet urbanist morons and cyclists like you have insanely stupid visions of getting NYC density in the suburbs, as if everything will become magically walkable, bikable, and accessible with public transit in a reasonable amount of time.

Lol, this idea is pure pie in the sky nonsense.  Areas are much larger with not enough population density to support all of the spending you'd have to do to build 1000 more transit stops by rail.  It's so stupid it is laughable.

You have to drive in the suburbs. We live in the US.  MoCo is not NYC. It will never be NYC.  We don't live with density like Tokyo, Hong Kong or Seoul.  Comparing life in those areas to life in the burbs is so dumb. Yes, it would take inordinate amounts of time to run errands because everything a scattered all over a much larger area with less people.  That means less lines run, and there's not enough people to make any similar styles of transit in NY or Tokyo economically viable.

Cars it is.  [/quote]
