I agree that the current legal framework does heavily subsidize sprawl, but this may be an effect of popular desires rather than a cause thereof.

I definitely wouldn't try to make the argument that there's a universal desire for sprawl. That manifestly just isn't the case. At the same time, I think it's equally obvious that there's a very large sector of society that has absolutely no interest in living in a more closely connected, sustainable environment.

It's not as though everyone deep down is just clamouring to live in condos and row houses but is prevented from doing so by misguided development regulation.
