- vram22 12y agoGood point.
- atmosx 12y agoHm, there is Maslow's pyramid that could be seen as a general model[1] along with the human rights[2]. The problem is not the car. The problem (in the US and now in Europe too) is healthcare, food and shelter (own home). These things, given the tech, should come for almost free IMHO, for any individual who lives in a "civilized country". Of course, there are many problems: illegal immigration[3], health care costs, etc. But technology should be used to do all these things cheaper for the masses, leading to a higher average standard of life.
