Travel luxuries? Cars are the luxury. Living a hour from where you work is a "luxury".
Saying someone needs a car to make up for their poor lifestyle choices doesn't mean they need a car, it means they need better choices.
βYou being born in a rural area and not able to move to a higher cost of living city with public transit is a poor life choice on your partβ

Farmers don't have hourlong commutes. I'm complaining about people that work in town but live outside of it.
Sure thing bud.
Ah right, not wanting to live in a metropolis and wanting to live in the mountains with fewer people, cleaner air, and cleaner water, and also working a trade that requires hauling tools and equipment to job sites are poor lifestyle choices, got it.
