Think about it
There would suddenly be motivation to fix America's terrible infrastructure and improve public transit which in turn would:
- Reduce air pollution dramatically
- Reduce a primary source of environmentally destructive suburbanization
- Reduce a primary cause of megafauna extinction
- Reduce a primary cause of the urban heat island effect
- Eliminate the primary cause of death for children 18 and under
- Reduce the population of some of the worst human beings on earth (they all seem to love driving)
Caveats: There would need to be some exceptions for shipping, taxi drivers, etc which might be hard to enforce.
Well yes, but more importantly I miss not living in a society completely built around one of the worst inventions in all of human history that is one of the primary drivers (heh) of our civilization hurtling towards collapse
Everything would be better if I were the sole decider of who lives and who dies. Then everyone would behave.
I mean that's basically what this is, I'm just delegating enforcement to anyone who wants to pick up a gun and get to work.
I drive motorcycles to get around town when i dont need my truck. I propose harley and goldwing drivers should be the targets for motorcycles.
American shanty towns are gonna be awesome since instead of semi-permanent structures like you see in other impoverished countries, they will all be cardboard boxes and tents due to being regularly swept and dismantled for "health and safety" reasons.
