I agree, and I think you're even perhaps being a bit harsh, people can do things, but a lot of the time it's so impractical as to not be worth considering. In a car based society it can be almost impossible to forego a car. And I certainly don't blame anyone for doing what they need to survive or even just live comfortably.

The only thing I have an issue with is people who otherwise could, choosing inaction because 'corporations'. Corporations are almost 100% to blame, political parties being able to take bribes/donations is one of the biggest failings of modern society and has led to so much harm it's almost unfathomable. But I still don't accept that as an excuse to do nothing, corporations and politicians aren't going to change otherwise.
