See the PBS video "Driven to Despair" that documents how the sprawling "exurbs" coupled with high fuel prices, gas guzzler autos, highways, long commutes, falling home prices and now the mortgage crisis have all come together as a sort of perfect storm that spells serious if not catastrophic trouble for many Americans. CP has long advocated for more public transit and decried the automobile crazed culture that has wrought destruction of our landscape as we sprawl toward economic and environmental disaster. This documentary says it all and shows it all in such a compelling manner that I put it on the do-not-miss list. SO DO NOT MISS IT or the other companion videos "An Exhausting Commute" and "Reinventing American Transportation". You have been warned! See: Driven to Despair
