Nobody is blaming the American people. It's the car corporations that bought and dismantled light rail and train systems and lobbied the government to build cities around the car.

And now the American people are so brainwashed into thinking owning a car is freedom and public transit is "socialism" that they will fight tooth and nail against anything that is against their "freedom" to be forced to own and pay for a car.
