What's crazy is why do we even need so many cars that they need to be made this fast?

Think about it. How many children are being born at the same amount of this one assembly line of this one brand, and they all need a car? Why do we need so many cars!?

I’m with you if you mean this type of mass production? I wonder if it’s more profitable to make them on demand or mass production like this?

I need a car to get to work. Or I can take the bus an hour earlier and get there late.

The amount of infrastructure redesign, urban planning, etc. required to make it so 'we don't need cars at all', while theoretically possible is not practically feasible. Even in places with robust public transit and design geared towards walkability, people still use cars.
