    Unfortunately, due to the infrastructure (or lack thereof) in the US, you’d essentially be condemning them to death by doing so. They wouldn’t be able to get to their jobs or a grocery store, because everything is too far away to walk in a reasonable time, and most of them don’t have bikes and can’t afford one on a short notice. So they’d end up homeless, and once you’re homeless in the US, you’ve already got one foot in the grave. It’d be more merciful to imprison them.

      I’m 42, and live in the USA. I’ve never owned a vehicle. My bike got stolen a year ago. I still do just fine.
