Trying to make a villain out of the suburbs is absurd. I used to live in L.A. and stuffing 200 people into a bus at 6:30 A.M. is not exactly a favorable alternative to driving in traffic. The dvd is a good watch, but I still think it's too heavy handed and the people involved are missing a major sector of people striving to grasp that American dream, ie; The Mexican Immigrant.

I think some of the predictions are already coming true--downtown L.A. is having a revival now. Suburbia was built on subsidies through government subsidies of highways and also of water. Without the subsidies, no more suburbia would be built--a good thing I saw “End of Suburbia” some time back, and found it excellent.
