Here are 5 other steps we can take to ensure our morning commutes are an absolute breeze, and we don’t need to (swallows vomit) take transit or (dry heaves) ride a bike.

Poor people can't drive. You can't drive on minimum wage. You can't have a place to live and drive on less than 50k. Driving is a privilege that many of us just don't have. You act like that's not the case, like we all just fucking shrivel up and die the moment we lose our license. You adapt. Life goes on. It's not the end of the fucking world. Pull your head out of your ass. You're not afraid you can't work, literally millions of people in this province find a way to keep working. you're afraid of a loss to your quality of life. And you don't give a shit that your quality of life comes at the loss of other people's quality of life.

Where I live it's cheaper for me to own a car pay insurance and gas, than it is to pay for 4 monthly transit passes a month for my family
