| Message | This is just a ridiculous proposal. The elimination of non-environmentally-friendly cars is the ultimate objective, and we have made the transition fully and properly. There are no benefits to returning to the kinds of fuels which destroy the environment. Those kinds of fuels were only allowed as we made the transition because they were cheaper and more efficient, in the modern era - the one we live in - we have efficient and cost-effective environmentally-friendly cars and it has massively reduced carbon emissions. Why would we willingly add to pollution? This is not a case of freedom. People have the freedom to travel in an extremely wide market of cars. Freedom is the ability to do non-harmful things without being impugned by the government. Freedom is not the ability to choose to fuck over the planet and the animals in the course of doings things. All this does is choke animals and melt the icecaps, nobody is gaining anything from this but car company CEOs. You should have the freedom to move, not the freedom to move while simultaneously killing animals. Anouk Reding UMR |
