Nah, I took that pic some time back. I do, however, only live close enough right now to only require a ~2 hour plane flight to get there.
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it.
This is pretty terrifying to me. I recognize that a grade school student earning some income can be helpful for them and/or their family, but endangering their health and childhood is a no-go for me.
Pretty much all I see is, “If we need to keep capitalism going, we gotta indoctrinate them young.”
I think the view behind the anti-car movement is that there shouldn’t be cars. Period. Doesn’t matter what income bracket. Gas powered cars create huge amounts of pollution, all cars generate lots of waste and are in general very inefficient modes of transportation.
I believe in the end it advocates for busses and trains (above and below ground)as public transit. I think there’s also a belief that infrastructure is supposed to be updated to support this. Busses get their lane, while most of a street is for people moving under their own power, be it walking, cycling or using a wheelchair.
