I just can't help but be curious how much the increased cancer rates 1/4 of a mile from highways/interstates cost US society?
I know it's a strange thought, but we know for a fact that the cancer rates for people living near interstates and highways, because of the **carcinogens** is markedly higher than people living elsewhere. So how much does that cost us as a society, because that absolutely is part of the cost to society of building and keeping car based infrastructure crammed into the middle of residential areas.
