These two images are typical rural sprawl compared with Central Manhattan, on the exact same scale. Now I'm not an expert on these matters, but something tells me pollution, traffic and logistical problems would be much, much worse is everyone had their own plot of land.
Yeah, but there's plenty of potential to redistribute farmland already in use by megacorporations to people who want it. Ofc it's not for everyone but there's nothing wrong with giving people the option.
This is really important to me. I can’t live in a suburb or city.
