People have to drive cars, because the United States is too big. If you overlaid the U.S. on the map of North America, it'd stretch from Tierra del Fuego to Helsinki! That's why we don't build compact, walkable cities with the necessities of daily life near where people live, the country is too large and there's just not enough space!
