>plus shitty commutes significantly reduce the quality of life (at least IMO, I guess some people might want to be stuck in a car and have an hour or two less with friends or family).
Actually, you'd be surprised. I've met tons of Americans who actually like long commutes, and refuse to live too close to work. They seem to live having some kind of separation, and having to spend a lot of time in the car driving there every day. It boggles my mind.
- closeparen 8y agoIf you have an open office at work and a family at home, the commute might be your only access to solitude. Some people need that.
- magduf 8y agoSo we're going to burn incredible amounts of fossil fuel and destroy the ecosystem because a bunch of morons can't figure out how to go find someplace quiet to sit for a while? And why can't these idiots get their families to leave them alone for a while in their bedroom or whatever?
