    Yeah, every debate about reducing the number of cars always ends at something like “too many jobs are involved in the car industry, so we need to preserve these jobs, and also people need cars to go work in these factories”. I feel like there will hardly be a deep environmental breakthrough if it doesn’t come with a deep social change.

      I would rather work down the road at a bakery than drive to the next town to be an engineering apprentice.

      Only one of them pays, however.
