I'd rather get rid of the bankers and advertisers (for starters) and keep the car thieves.

Actually, I'd rather we get rid of the cars...

That you would prefer car thieves to cars really says it all.
Sure, but you forgot to mention which are these "all".

Besides, cars kill far more people than car thieves (actually, they are the leading cause of death in young people), pollute the air, have a big environmental impact for their construction (including electric cars), contribute to urban noise pollution, and influence city planning in creating monstrous (sub)urban sprawls. And that's before the billions spent on oil for car use, and the millions killed to ensure first world countries control it and get it for cheap.
