I hope you understand that you are in a very privileged position to be able to afford that lifestyle. Not everyone can do that.

Yes, we should, collectively, all demand this.

It's the nice thing about government in my opinion: we create it to serve us as a community. Our taxes are the price to creating the community we want to live in. From taking trash away to keep the neighborhoods clean, to good schools to educate our (and other's) children.

If we want public transportation, a bike-able city—we just need to demand our tax money go to that.

Are you claiming owning a cargo bike is a bigger privilege than owning a car? Problem with cargo bikes are, if you are living in a flat where you cannot "park" them, you mean this?

On what planet is getting your groceries on a bike "more privileged" than driving?
