If autonomous ride-share becomes ‘affordable’ and ubiquitous, do you really need to ‘own’ a car?
I predict that as soon as legal, car sales will plummet and eventually there will be 70% less cars on the road and a host of other knock-on changes. Can't wait.
It’s when the bare essentials are forcibly taken from us with no alternatives that the real revolution will begin.
It is a process of degrees and it will quicken fast as like you say, it has become more rapid.
Not many are moving to remote cabins and living off of the land in response!
I wonder what a disaster the world would be in if 7 billion people tried to live self-sufficiently. Imagine the billions of minor conflicts over resources when 10 million New Yorkers move into a forest :)
