it makes sense to me. The car people are very rich and use their power to ensure their richness and car dominance at the expense of people's livelihood.

Lots of stuff like that where the alternative would be cheaper/ better for society is not implemented because it would mean the rich faction of that particular thing would get less money.

Nah, depends where you live. Beeing poor but Beeing able to get to work somehow are not a consideration to ponder about. But yea society can be built to encourage public transport. Or semi public even . If I was to design a city I would just have a huge parking spot outside and free transport from there.
