18. it's not just "a car". It's 1/3 to 1/2 of a house.
The "automobile" is without a doubt the biggest scam ever visited upon American people and the world in general. Got you a car so now you can be forced to drive 30 to 60 miles away from where you live every day to pay for that car. And it can't just be a beater, it has to be a $30,000 dick on wheels with all the bells and whistles,
'cause people may never see where you live, but they sure as hell will need to be impressed by your ride to wage-slavery.

It is just a horrible thing what is going on with cars in this country, not even to mention the destruction of nature for roads and pollution and all the other crap you gotta have. Even if it's paid for,there's taxes and insurance and gas and inspection ($35.00 in NC, up from $7.50 in just a decade) and liscense plates and oil changes and tires and not to even mention repairs. I keep waiting for people to WAKE UP from what is being done to them and to this country by this invention...it's a necessary evil, but it shouldn't be allowed to bankrupt most normal earning folks.
