Yeah I heard a city mayor on NPR the other day talking about ways to get people back downtown to support businesses. They need to just stop already. That's not leadership. If people don't want to be downtown give them a good reason. Build housing and grocery stores or something. Don't Force people to commute.
Forcing a huge portion of the population to move to a particular area every day and then vacate it is becoming outdated, and it caused a shitload of problems anyways. Time to move on to more decentralized urban planning.
