    It takes a certain amount of money to achieve a good financial position. It’s simply not possible if your below the middle class. That’s sort of how capitalism works.

      Takes a certain amount of ignorance to think everyone is in the same position financially like you do

      You can be poor af and still have a car. You can be rich af and not have one. Money is not the sole factor in owning a car.

        I don’t think you understand what it means to be in a good financial position. Can you afford to go without work for at least 6 months? Can you survive unexpected expenses, for example car health home expenses without taking on debt? If you can’t, you simiply aren’t in a good financial position.

        I am not saying everyone is in the same financial position… in fact I’m literally saying that being in a good financial position is a privilege that is made incredibly hard to obtain under capitalism.

          If you don’t think people should have a car if they’re poor, you’re very ignorant.

          And you saying capitalism every other sentence just makes me believe you’re a troll. Give it a rest.

            I’m a communist, hence why I like to point out the flaws of capitalism. If anything you’re the troll here and you need to chill out.

            I’m not saying that poor people shouldn’t own cars. In our car centric world the reality is you NEED a car, unless you have good public transit available.

            I’m simply saying that the objective reality is a good financial position implies being able to buffer yourself from the uncertainty of life.

            If you can’t, you aren’t in a good financial position. It is extremely hard to be poor and be in a good financial position. Capitalism is systematically set-up to keep poor people poor and rich people rich.

              Communists are the vegans and linux users of the world. They can’t possibly think of anything else to do but parrot the same ads every chance they get. It’s pretty funny and ironic.

                LMFAO you can’t shame me for believing in a world where all people are treated with humanity and everyone is valued… It’s truly sad to see somone so closed off to uplifting those around them. Take care girlypop.
