You are allowed hate something you own and depend on. What I find fuck cars people are about is how much cars are catered for and it's still horrible to use in a lot of places.

absolutely.

Normally I live in a, relatively speaking, new city - and everything is so bloody far away, sure some things are more centralised but plenty of things are getting built in places with no public transport connections or an easy way to walk to.

For 3 years at uni I lived in a very old town, and everything, just everything, was in the town centre, you could walk everywhere with no issues.

The difference is one place was built for people, and the other was built for cars.

I live in a third world country and have to usually have to take taxis to get anywhere without being a sweaty mess and I'd love to the point where public transportation can get you anywhere in the metro, similar to how Hong Kong (where income taxes are pretty low as far as I know) does it.
