Because I said I couldn’t live in a park or because having a car is to “individualistic”?
Just a quick Google search shows that 88% of households have a car in the EU compared to 95% in the US. The EU is not some great Utopia where no one needs a car.
I perceive in the US this general distaste for "things that benefit society as a whole" versus "things that benefit me, all else be damned".
Many things here in Europe don't benefit me directly, and I pay taxes for that. And I think that is a good thing. I can still live a fairly comfortable life, could buy a house, raise a family, have nice things, etc.
A nice public park may not benefit you directly, but it doesn't mean it is not something desirable to have around. "I can't live in a public park" is indicative of a pervasive attitude that irks me to no end.
May all public parks near you become concrete parking locations. Then you can park your car there.
But they still couldn't live there, whether grass or concrete. Nobody in this thread expressed any interest in a place to park a car, it was "a 3,000 sq ft house".
