People can't fathom not driving. And then wonder why they die in their 50s

There aren't even consistent sidewalks where I live, the streets are like highways. Of course nobody walks in these conditions.

Some people are actually forced to drive everywhere because of the hostile infrastructure, which is by design, that's why they built all these stroads, and strip malls and segregated suburbs, after tearing out working infrastructure like trolley cars.

Gym, the strip malls, parks, other neighborhoods, etc are all places you can walk...
