More trains please. High-speed rail between cities, lightrail between suburbs, streetcars between neighborhoods, and better shoes for everywhere else.

Yes, fixed rail at a time when people no longer have to crowd themselves into cities. That's the ticket.

If you've ever been to Tokyo, Taipei, or any old European capital, you'd know that "crowding people into cities" can be a good and beautiful thing, when the infrastructure is there.

Make cities decent places to live, grow a family, and hang out instead of just workday commute destinations.

More people should be living in cities. We need not only fewer cars but also fewer freestanding, single-family homes. Continental Europeans trounce Americans in land management in part because continental Europeans do not abhor density the way Americans do.
