This is highly controversial and related to one's personal ideals, views and ideology.
As for myself, it doesn't bother me to use Paris's mass transit system because I was born in there. It's simply natural when you've always been used to it.

However, people who live in real remote suburbs or in rural areas don't have any subway or RER trains at all in their neighborhoods and have been complaining about the fact that cities are turning less and less accessible to them, because they don't have anything but cars to commute.
That is a serious issue. That's why we need to find some balanced solution, so cities remain open to cars somehow. Besides, having some (not too many, though) cars in the streetscape is actually cool. Especially when it's good looking vehicles. I like pretty cars. They are cool products of industry. There's nothing wrong about them when you're free from any political bias.

Sure, the socialists would literally ban cars from cities, but it's a rude and downright tyrannical attitude. No one is entitled to enforce their own lifestyle upon other people. It's just stupidly rude.
So the most convenient would be good manners. People in dense areas should use their mass transit system. Others have nothing but cars.
