Thought this was pretty interesting and entertaining. Made me dream for a while about what living in a society with a mature library economy would be like. Figured I’d share and try to get a discussion going. Enjoy!
Subscription economy (what we’re getting) vs library economy (what we want)
I was just reading about car companies requiring subscription fees to “unlock” functions of the car you own. From that straight to this. My brain is in a whirl right now…
You mean the mercedes’ “pay $1200/year to unlock better acceleration” thing? That’s fucked up.
You can buy a cargo ebike for about $2500 (RadWagon 4).
Used kid trailers are pretty cheap, too. ($100 or so). They convert easily to cargo trailers. Bicycles really do create “unfettered liberty.”
I literally just bought one yesterday for $100 😄
