More Latte-Drinking Horseshit

These "whole foods nations" types, "limousine liberals," or whatever you want to call these clueless types, have often pushed the line there should be public transportation in every community of the United States, no matter how expensive, how small the community, or how impractical public transportation is in most of them. It is not to say there isn't a place for it--there is--but it's the disgusting double standard spewed by these elitists who either don't use public transportation themselves or else live in an area of the country (New York City, San Francisco, Portland) where the public transportation systems are topnotch and owning a car isn't necessary. They think public transportation is good for thee but not for me, and it "saves the environment." Their crap is almost always targeted at people too poor to own cars, even older cars, and never mind taking a bus is a major hassle, inconvenience, and worst of all, a major restriction one's mobility.

Now we get more preachifying by somebody who has overdosed on latte with his suggesting people, meaning everybody other than the rich, should give up on the idea of the American Dream of having one's own single-family home, or "stick house" at it is known in the trade. Need I state the obvious homeownership is not only beneficial for people, especially those who have children, but it is important for the stability of a community. Well, we who aren't rich should worry about the "environment" and quit aspiring to things our parents and grandparents took for granted.

Well, fuck that.
