I agree, but there are countries (like Austria where i live) which incentivizes long commutes by financial benefits - its called "Pendlerpauschale", meaning a general payment for people having to drive a longer commute.

In my opinion, the only thing they are paying for is a more dispersed suburbian area and a big load of CO2 emissions, while sealing a shitton of earth in the suburbs.
