Woke up thinking about the recent episode of nostr:nprofile1qqs879mhq6kkuzh2wk57xdzanl76uem8d7hlyjd7v4a4jcm4u88d8ygprdmhxue69uhhyetvv9ujucnfw33k76twwpshy6ewvdhk6qgewaehxw309aek2mnyd96zumn0wdnxcctjv5hxxmmdqyt8wumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnswf5k6ctv9ehx2aq4gjn9u and can't get past the idea nostr:nprofile1qqsqfjg4mth7uwp307nng3z2em3ep2pxnljczzezg8j7dhf58ha7ejgpzemhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuurjd9kkzmpwdejhgqgcwaehxw309ac8yetdd96k6tnswf5k6ctv9ehx2aqpr9mhxue69uhhxetwv35hgtnwdaekvmrpwfjjucm0d54df670 mentioned about why car insurance is becoming so expensive. We're heading towards a world were driving your own car will be a privilege only for those who are rich enough to afford it. The rest will have driverless cars. It's crazy to think how much this affects your privacy and how much the climate change agenda will help pursue the idea.

💯👌🏾
We can always build new insurance companies for the masses that are not controlled by the elite corporations and use technology to solve problems.
We already live in a world where driving a car and car ownership is a privilege. Ever been to Central America or India? It's all perspective. If you own a car right now, you are wealthier than most.
I've watched my peers justify taking on finance, like a mortgage, to pay for a car. And become slaves to the liability. They drive the car to work to pay for the car.
I see a world when sats are the standard and you are only charged a rate while your actually driving your car.
Also, would you need insurance if your only asset(s) was unconfiscatable Bitcoin?
Nice to meet you friend 😉🤝
Yes i agree 🤝😉 nice to meet you sean
What’s it like to live in a world where you make so many logically leaps to fight against the fact that the climate is changing.
I've looked out my window for decades and the wind still blows, the rain still pours, and the sun still shines. Yet the intrusion on my privacy gets worse more so than the weather.
Weather does not equal climate. Shitty politics and greed has bastardized the crisis, won’t argue with that.
I did say decades.
Self-sovereignty means understanding the very real risks that come from climate change and being prepared for them, not ignoring them. Living in a location where your local climate is maybe more stable doesn't mean you won't be impacted by a changing climate globally.

It's probably something that I need to do more research on. Although, for the short amount of time I've been here it's only ever been used as an excuse to infringe on the little privacy I have. This is personal experience and not necessarily based on any specific peer reviewed paper.
For sure. Governments will use any excuse to expand power. But we just need to be careful to not use that as an excuse ourselves to disregard real threats and risks. We just need to make sure to put a check on government power while tackling these problems with real solutions.
Nobody can afford new cars..... That mean we will only get robo taxis?
