This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I don't think it's illegal. The amount of citizen with access to enough wealth to own a car is just relatively low

Private car ownership is highly restricted. You only have access to a car if you are a party member, are conducting business for the party, or are well connected.

Their society is very localized and travel is restricted(you need a permit to leave your county), trains and bicycles are how you move about if you aren't walking.

Nice, they've solved the climate crisis. It truly is the greatest country.

If every nation could only be a failed state with a 60% poverty level and be propped up by multiple superpowers, we could totally kick the can at least another generation.
