If you're an American, there are huge parts of the country where lacking a car is infeasible.

But for the sake of argument, let's say you shutter your car. You can spend a ton of time walking to, and waiting on, public buses, time you can't use to study for a degree, or be with your kids. Maybe you rely on a friend's car, but then you miss out on last-minute shift opportunities, and your friend's transport problems become your problems, too, so if they're sick, you miss a shift and risk getting fired.

You're so out-of-touch, I'm surprised you didn't just say "Let them Uber to work, then."



I'm not American, thankfully


National flamewar comments will get you banned here. Please don't do this again.

(Regardless of which nation, obviously.)


This guy has been hugely discourteous to me, why not ban him? Things like this are partly the reason I just want to delete my HN history and leave.
