cars could be good if they were manufactured and used solely as the most practical mode of transportation in certain circumstances i.e. rural communities.
cars right now are manufactured as goods for capitalist profit for an industry that has worked to systematically destroy any alternative to the personal automobile.
Cars are not neutral, nor do they really make things more accessible, all things considered. Needing a car is like the most regressive tax you can imagine, costing you upwards of $300 a month and requiring poor people to spend more, even in absolute terms, on gas and repairs.
