This article isn't saying suburbs are a drain on cities. It's saying that cities have overextended themselves because of skewed incentives imposed on them by government policies (the main one being printing money to fund real estate development). The solution to that is not to abolish suburbs. It's for the government to stop imposing skewed incentives.

The article explicitly highlights modern car centric development as not paying for itself.

My man is using a strategy I fondly refer to called "burning the head in the sand"
