Even if we kept the car way of life (not saying we should) doesn't it seem like there are way too many cars being produced? Like how many new cars do we really need every year? I honestly do not know the numbers, I'm just saying it sure seems like this many brand new cars don't need to exist.

We made produce useless shit fucking all over the world nonstop, the stuff with functionality to me is like a drop in the bucket. How many stupid fucking packaging materials are in the guts of fishes because little Cindy wanted to get a W this year with her daughter and decided to buy her a pack of miniature plastic foods
