That's the prediction of the Urban Land Institute with regards to our transportation infrastructure. We are just too dependent on the automobile. There are 750 cars per 1,000 Americans, 500 per Englishman and much fewer around the world. And we don't like trains. We have 300 kilometers of high-speed rail; Japan has 2,000 and is building more. We are building exactly zero.
But it isn't just our transportation infrastructure. A few months ago I reported on problems with our water infrastructure.
