    Cars are a huge one. I know Lemmy is very radically against cars, but they are basically necessary for many (most?) Americans.

    What is not necessary is the average price of a new car nearly doubling in 10 years. A $50k car should be a big luxury, not the fucking national average.

    In order to afford a car that pricey, most people will have to severely compromise their savings, and/or get a loan that will last as long or longer than the car.
