    The automobiles, parking and highways vicious cycle has proven to be an indictment of capitalism and the corruption of the US. i don’t think going electric for all our cas is going to be enough, and were seeing climate migration not only to the US but northward within the US.

    The movie Mad Max (and its sequels) was inspired by somone observing car obsession tendencies among Australians and positing how fuel would be prioritized above its utility. Our obsession is worse here in the States, and for our love of cars and failure to change for sake of the world may see a similar apocalypse, though with fewer working vehicles and a lot more cannibalism.

    I hope I’m wrong, of couse.

      I completely agree but that doesn’t make immediately banning all cars a reasonable proposal. My assumption was that the meme was intended to spark discussion, which it certainly has. Though it sounds like OP is a little more serious than I thought.
