"Public investment" vs "Wasteful Subsidy." The only problem with this clever classic Singer cartoon is that some people might not get that it’s illustrating the perception problem, NOT telling the truth.
Just in case it actually needs to be said, the truth is exactly the opposite.

Of course. That infrastructure needs to be build (just like any other infrastructure).
If you only need a car occasionally, a car rental would be cheaper than owning a car. But since suburbia is specifically built to accommodate cars exclusively, most people in the US have a car anyway.

In European cities, this is actually viable. I see lots of people driving around the city (I live in) on bikes with their children.
I only buy groceries using the car if it has to be charged anyway and I can do that while shopping.
