I get it though. I love driving cars, busses and trucks. It's a lot of fun. But the fun isn't worth the resources it takes to make, maintain and pollute.
Honestly. I wish my country wasn't sacked by the rich who "wanted to lower taxes" but only ended up decreasing the funding for essential services. Services the poor rely on more than the rich. Healthcare and public education mainly. If we didn't have vampires at the helm, we'd probably have more taxes going to public services. And heck, I would have loved our country to pay tax for "free" public transport. That would be so much more efficient, safe and affordable for everyone.
Because rn, my LPG chevrolet spark is more affordable than a train subscription. Gonna give my ol car to a family member though. She needs it more. Living in a rural area and needing to travel pretty far for her work. Public transport would be 1.5-2hrs travel while driving is about 45min.
