    I mean, at it’s core a car is just a metal box with four wheels. It’s just a tool for us to accomplish the goals of moving things that need to be moved, not unlike a hammer. Nothing intrinsically wrong with the tool and it certainly has its uses, but relying on cars for mass transportation is like hammering in a screw. You can physically do it with that tool, but it’s a really bad application of the tool.

    There is an interesting analogy between various factors and another sector, the automobile industry. In much the same way that drug companies used to control the entire development process from the fnf beginning of R&D to the end of the marketing phase, auto companies used to control the entire car manufacturing process.
