    I think there’s a significant part of American culture and mythology constructed around self-reliance. It is at the heart of the rage over socialism (that and anti-communist sentiment left-over from the Cold War), the hardcore prepper mindset, and pickup trucks.

    When that is your identity logic doesn’t play into it, unfortunately.

    Also, the prevalence of $100k+ vehicles is getting goddamn ridiculous.
