They live out most of their lives in their cars, and exhaust fumes are clinically proven to be deeply harmful to cognitve ability. I don't know why we don't talk about that more. Wait, no, I know exactly why we don't talk about that more.

    There was an interesting study done. A group was asked if smoking should be banned in outdoor cafes. Most said yes, it smells and forces everyone to inhale it.

    Then they were asked if high-polluting vehicles like trucks should be banned from streets with outdoor cafes. Most said no.

    The dots cannot be connected for some.
