The car is not an evil device. The incredible over-use of them is, however, patently ridiculous. Most folks do not need a car for a sizable percentage of what they do with them.?
Here, here. I too, agree. Driving one block to the grocery store in your SUV is. Unnecessary trips like that are wasteful. Take a walk with your kids or bike to the corner store. The percentage of obese people, including kids, in this country is ridiculous!
I admit I do have a car mainly for commuting purposes (too far to drive) and my wife does have a minivan that sees minimal use during the week.
