Make it illegal for corporations to own homes, and the problem goes away overnight.

There aren’t many walkable neighborhoods in *America*. Where are you finding one in the midwest?

Huge pickup trucks are also the result of a stupid tax code that treats passenger trucks differently from passenger cars, and heavy subsidies on the price of gas which shifts the cost of fuel from the truck’s owner to the taxpayers.

A “shit ton” of money? Seriously? Billions in subsidies for EVs, compared to trillions in subsidies for dead dinosaur fuel.

He isn’t stupid. He’s a liar.

“Half of this country is financially illiterate.”

“Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.” - Frank Wilhoit

The natural end state of classical liberalism is feudalism, but with the owner class replacing the nobility. For examples of this, check out the cyberpunk genre. Edgerunners does a good job of demonstrating a classical liberal health care system in the first episode.

Does that even qualify as a pickup truck?
