cars are the opposite of freedom in my opinion. I grew up/live in a city where there is fortunately rudimentary public transit but a lot of shit is highly inaccessible without a car. Especially in the winters here having to rely on the bus to get to work was absolute hell, but even then having a car is such a massive chore. Outside of rent it is my biggest expense in a month and driving is highly dangerous despite the fact that id consider myself quite good at it. Id much rather be able to just rely on public transport and not have to deal with the cost and stress of driving on a daily basis, would feel much more free id say. And thats not even considering the social aspects of not having a car here and how that can limit you, wish it were just typical (and practical) for most people to take transit
Is your city under the management of Capitalists who only implement architectures that benefits the rich people, raise cost of living, and creates an environment where environmentally destructive investment is the best choice for personal finance?
