Listen you’re totally right.
But even if car people lived somewhere with the best public transport in the world, they would drive.
It’s not about technology or even reality. This conversation is a lot like trying to tell private health insurance users about single payer systems. Or private school users about federalized education. Or telling people with 4 children or 0 children how to live in a world where a thing like the sedan is designed for people with 2 children.
It is telling rich people you know better and also they are wrong, which is not an emotion you’re permitted to send.
- JoeAltmaier 6y agoMany people are stretching the budget to have a car. With an adequate bus system that gets you anywhere in town taxi distance with a maximum single transfer of 15 minutes, there are perhaps many who's lives would be greatly improved by ditching the car. Or even just keeping the job if the car breaks down. Or using the car just for weekend jaunts.
