People will drive their gas-guzzling SUVs to the town-hall meeting to protest the rise of global emissions, and then sanctimoniously proclaim that off-shore windfarms are bad for the environment because they kill seabirds, and their view of the ocean.
People will drive their gas-guzzling SUVs 4 minutes to the gym to run 30 mins on a treadmill, when they could have just jogged there in the first place.
People will drive 20 minutes to a store to pay sales tax on an item in a store, rather than order it online, because they "wanted to shop".
People are sheeple, and sheeple are stupid. They have no choice, because they are too stupid to choose.
