When I moved 3 years ago I picked a place that was within walking distance of free transportation to my place of business.
Expect this trend to increase with gas prices (and jingle mail).
There is also the chance of a ‘black swan’ type tech event that is game changing. Like a sub 10k biodiesel roadster that gets 100 mpg. Or hyper-efficient batteries, solar cells, teleporters, whatever.
The real problem, however, is its not just a transportation issue. Oil is used in shipping, industry, farming, manufacture, etc. So even jerks like me that don’t drive every day end up paying for it one way or another.
