and yet people will be shocked that a decent everyday bike can cost as little as £500. For some reason they expect them to be practically free. For much less you can only buy a BSO (Bicycle-Shaped Object)

Around here families of four probably have at least two cars. I didn't realise what 'car-dependency' looked like until I moved out of London. People tell me, "You don't have transport," but I walk, I have a bike, I get the bus or the train.

My thoughts also. Totalitarian regimes make people work all the time so they're too burned-out and disorientated to rebel.
