Then, as people say, "fuck it, might as well live closer to work", there's less driving. Hell, mass transit gets funded, Democrats are driven out of their mobster-politician roles as the working and professional classes return, schools get re-desegregated (this time, voluntarily), Chicago turns into a shining Tokyo on a hill, and you and him don't even need to consider buying a hybrid or e-car.
Its like the unification theory. It just requires the death of the Democratic party and the end to asinine compromises between scared whites (read: just about everybody who protested here) and love-to-spend-other-people's-money liberals.

Actually, I had always figured on moving to the burbs. I dig the space, and I like to be able to drive places and not have to get my car out of a secure lot to go anywhere, or never be able to find parking. Shit City, where I lived, gets old quickly, but it has nice burbs. Hell, I can drink vodka tonics with my wife naked in the backyard. Couldn't do that in the City... The freedom is great.
