Haha. Therefore Australians live in cramped cities, to keep cost of living and cost for transportation low. Moment, Australians live in the biggest houses on the whole world and pay around 12000$ per household on transportation, having a car culture, that is often described as driving every meter. Australia is a suburban hellscape, which only rich countries can afford to maintain. It's not, that they live that way, because they're forced, it's a lifestyle choice. Don't defend a system built by the people, where they use 20 metric tons of CO2 per capita. No one is forced to use that much. This is a choice. A choice that Australia made again and again at the voting booth.
