so everyone owning their own pc is “antiquated” but everyone owning their own car is super cool and awesome. got it.
Nah, they want everybody to only use their robotaxi too.
Wait so you’re saying we can have these cars that can come pick up a bunch of people and it’ll be more efficient than everyone having their own car? What if we put the car on some kind of pre defined path, like a fixed one that can’t move. Would that make it more efficient?
Nah, everyone owning their own car is just the fucking norm. What’s cool is buying a new car. Often, and brand new.
When an economic system encourages you to constantly replace the same product, the concept of ownership becomes a little blurred. I mean, if you spend part of your budget on it every month for your entire life, it’s not much different from renting.
