Perhaps we should just do away with cars.

Dude. Guys. I wasn't saying some alien force should abduct every moving vehicle in the world tomorrow morning. I meant that I hate cars and can't drive at the age of 21, and we should get some Star Trek transporter shit up in here. That's all. I'm not an idiot- I know it's not practical, dudes. It was a joke. Evidently a bad one ;)

you must live in the city. somehow living 20 miles from any store and 15 miles from a job seems a neccesity

Wishful thinking :3
I'd like it, though.

While I'd be all for that living in Kalamazoo. Nothing is far apart, and the public transportation system is reliable. And, if you're a student, the bus is free!
But a car-free world would be waaaaaaay inconvenient for my parents and I living in Jackson. I mean...my driveway alone is 3/4 of a mile.
Jackson has some public transportation, but the buses don't come down my way. Everything north of my street is very rural.

Well, I think ideally we would get rid of cars if we fixed up other forms of transportation (or even came up with new forms). It could have a lot of benefits like helping the environment and eliminating traffic...but it's just not very practical. :(
