No... because they literally can't without massive upheaval of where schools, offices and shops are located.

"They literally can't change, because that would involve having to actually change".

They only want change that doesn't involve money, effort or change, or what?

Shops can move with the times, schools can continue to have buses to get kids there and offices can stay where they are as long as they'd like.

Banning vehicles has been shown to greatly increase shopping revenue and improve the healthiness of the area, so if a few businesses suffer, poor them... I'll not shed a tear for the strip malls.

Where in my comment do I suggest moving the suburbs? Nothing in your comment would be a result of anything in mine.
