    It’s wild to me that people will say this, then drive on a government subsidized/built road, buy government subsidized fuel, literally walk into a government building to register their vehicles (with the government, so that their vehicles can be properly taxed by the government), and pay for government mandated insurance (that they have to pay for again to actually use).

    But I’m a chump for paying for unlimited rides once a month. Okay 👌😒.

      “But by providing car infrastructure, government enables economic development!”

      “Yeah, that goes for train infrastructure too, you know.”

      Over here, government still provides the roads, but pulled back sharply on providing parking infrastructure. That’s privatized. Good luck finding anything nearby for less than €20 per day.
