This is what they took from us.*

*I am referring, of course, to the decommissioned train station where this photo was taken. It's a shame that even with the embarrassing state of public transit in this country, we can't even have private automobiles with the kind of panache still barely demonstrated by this Oldsmobile.

It sounds like you’re saying the lack of public transportation is at least partially to blame for modern cars not having the same style or as much style as older cars.

No. I'm saying that the dearth of cool cars is the insult to the injury of having inadequate public transit. "They" are just the policy makers who have been acting on behalf of the bourgeois rather than the working class.
