Yes, everyone has nothing better to do than go shopping daily for anything they need. Nevermind having stores on hand in case you can't go to the store daily, like when we had a pandemic. Plus, we should all pay the maximum "bodega" price for everything, no buying in bulk for things to be cheaper, or just buying at a larger central location where things are cheaper.

This just seems asinine to me.

I suggest you do more research, it's far from asinine. It may seem very strange to someone who has lived their entire life in a car centric city but these ideas have been applied in many cities successfully. The results are a healthier and happier populace.
