Kunstler's Feel...My OPINION

I feel Kunsler's argument is very well put. There are not enough places that we "Care about" in America. Could you imagine all the possibilities we as a country could have if we built better, nicer places in which we occupied or surrounded by. We can possibly boost the economy by making more jobs available to the places we "Cared about", we can get more tourists traveling to and around the places we " Cared about", and mainly we can lessen the amount of places that are not being used because of either its poor structure or poor commercial setting. Why as Americans do we not adopt the mentality of the Europeans for example, they use only a small block of land but in that small block they have everything from a bar to a restaurant to a grocery store. Instead we as Americans have to travel across town to a poorly built structure that has no appeal and no charisma and is bigger then the European block yet the European block has twice as much variety, twice as much appeal, and twice as much people yet still smaller. If we as Americans adopted this type of mentality our economy can possibly make a dent in the right direction. But yet we seem to follow our stubborn ways and build a Target and nothing else around it and expect people to come. If we cared about our structures and buildings we can make a stride in the right direction by making America a country in which people from other countrys say "America Cares".
