That said, it's also plainly not a conduit through which Big Brother can nefariously hold unlimited control over my life and it's kinda ridiculous that you could think this. I personally don't own a car and public transit works just fine for me.
Do you not concede that being dependent on mass transit at the very least puts MUCH GREATER control of your life in the hands of big brother than driving your own car would?
