Regarding the comparison: it's just that there are infinitely many modes of transporting people different from cars, that's why I argued against it. I would not argue against the point that cars in themselves are very useful. If the point however is how we are using them and how many of them we build or how we arrange our living around the necessary public infrastructure to use cars for anythint, I'm not sure if I agree. IMO, as of now, this is a case of "market failure", if you will. But I know that the majority of people don't agree with this. As I see it, one of the main usages of cars seems to be to use them for not having to be around car traffic: e.g. living in suburbs, "escaping" into nature on the weekends.
