Instead of bitching about it, start working very hard on figuring out how to live without a car. Bitching is of zero value. Living without a car is one big step forward.

It isn't a matter of banning transportation, but getting transportation off of burning fossil fuels.

Just like we no longer use rotary phones but now have cell phones.

I have no problem with that, unless such involves starvation and/or freezing to death.

P.S. I was not "bitching".

Rotary phones are still compatible with central office switches, at least until recently. AT&T was still selling them on contract to a few hundred folks at $300 or so per year.

No one said anything about banning transportation. But the personally owned private automobile needs to go. Retards think tailpipe emissions are everything. More realistic people know that the carbon footprint of manufacturing billions of private coaches is astronomical. Green Consumerism is more about the money than the environment.

"Bitching" has the very real side effect of informing others.

Some people want the wrong impression of anything, and actively seek it out, so they can bitch about it.
