United States? Good point. Consider all the money which is spent on buying cars, interest, gas, repairs, registration fees, and things like insurance. It's huge. And consider the impact on the average middle class person. There are many entities profiting handsomely from the expectation that most people must have a personal vehicle and that people should pay hundreds or thousands a month to various companies in order to keep it.
