Stephen Chapman argues that Al Gore’s suburban critique blends genuine concerns with a push for federal planning. He contends sprawl critics mix with praise for urban life, while warning mass transit expansion may fail to curb car use. Chapman notes Americans move to suburbs for space and choice, resisting Washington driven land use.
