La is a wasted opportunity Discussion
Imagine if Los Angeles was built like Barcelona. Dense 15 million people metropolis with great public transportation and walkability.
They wasted this perfect climate and perfect place for city by building a endless suburban sprawl.

Again, this is just laughable, especially when you mention fucking Dallas.
Los Angeles has 14% of its land used for parks, the exact same as NYC, over a substantially larger piece of land. Dallas is 8%. Denver is 6%.
Do you just...say shit?
