The Albatross of Commuting
You have probably read of the extreme commutes that are commonplace for many; how millions are on the road by 5 a.m. and after 7 p.m.
It's hard for me to sympathize with these people.
At all.
Scaredy cats.
They want to live in their parochial, gated, seemingly safe and seemingly secure suburbs. They want to be vampires of our cities, sucking out what they can, only to run away at night, or to dabble back in the evening if there's enough safety in numbers, otherwise scared by the phantoms of fear.
The Culture of the Cul-de-Sac.
It's just a dead end, now, isn't it?
