    People still drive but only because we have no choice most of the time. In a lot of places particularly the US and Australia it’s impossible to participate in society without owning a car or people thinking there is something wrong with you.

      I did it for years in the city but can’t anymore.

      So yeah, anyhow, that’s my point.

        What’s your point? People have to do things they hate? Why not develop that thought further? WHY do we have to, and is a world where we have to less often (or not at all) possible?

          I feel the endless search for avoiding things I hate is a bit of a utopian dream. I try to be a bit more realistic and tolerant I suppose. Understood that you don’t tho.
