Link Only: Cars are the new smoking

This is an interesting post, with a good discussion to boot. I love how people got offended, cause I too do not own a car. I see people who view their car
“as an extension of themselves” (to quote a commenter) as literally offensive.

My girlfriend and I live 3 blocks from the grocery store and we see people drive there from our building all the time. Absolutely fattening is what that is.

Note: I’m a car user when I want to – and borrow and rent when necessary.
