Right. Kind of like an urban version of "no child left behind" i.e. let's lower the standards so everyone is happy? No. You have to have some standards.
That is your opinion, and your rep points verify that the rest of the forum does not agree.

^^ Now this is just LA City Proper,That Pretty Dense,It's not even the Metro.
^^Thats neat with all the Buildings, Can you See the Ocean Like in La from those Mountains,Or is it b/c of all the Tall Buildings Blocking It?LA is the Same just without all the Buildings My Point These factors do have a Impact on both Cities.
Yes they do. But the real question is what is more prevalent? Strip malls in New York are an exception not a rule, the city has very few actual malls that are so typical for suburbia. There has to be a way to differentiate between a city and suburbia and exsitance of strip malls and high use of public transportation criteria are one way of doing it.
Have you ever lived in LA? Or spent any time visiting and doing anything non-touristy? Because I think you've either never been to LA, or if so, haven't spent much time there.
You may not like LA, and I would agree that LA is not Manhattan, but it's silly to call it a surburb. And as far as public transportation, LA has the second largest system in the country, and it includes light rail, subway, and buses. And those buses and trains aren't exactly rolling around empty.
Come visit LA sometime and give it a chance. I think you'll be surprised.

And despite all of this transportation miracles is still famous for constant gridlock... Give me a break.

And despite the New York regions vastly superior rail system, it is even MORE gridlocked on every day of the week. With only a couple of million more people in the metro, this is simply unacceptable, and it has a huge negative impact.

Apples to oranges.
Hm. New York metro is larger than LA metro and no, New York is never as gridlocked as LA. Statistically 50% of households do not have access to a car. Wikipedia: New York City - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
On the other hand LA wins every giddlock contest in the country.
