It wasn't absurd to the people in the 29 U.S. States who voted to implement the laws. (Eugenics wasn't draconian in Sweden - it was completely voluntary.) And it is just a good example of Public Health decisions that made bad public policy. It makes a dramatic point. (Probably Eugenics is too loaded a word and detracts from OMG's original point that it is hardly likely that statistics show that car driving causes diabetes.)

I want an active healthy neighborhood. I just want lots of 400 series highways as well. I don't need some Officer of Public health telling me that because traffic congestion is gong to go up in the next 20 years that the answer is more traffic congestion and to try and convince me that diabetes is caused by driving cars.

Bike pathways yes. Efficient roadways yes. They are not mutually exclusive. Ergo, I suspect your comment below.
