There's a lot of overlap between horse people and car people. Well, I don't mean specifically about horses and cars. It's generally bad if those two things overlap. In spacetime at least. I forget what we were talking about. Can I start over?

One of the greatest fantasies of horse people is to have enough room to store and safely maintain a whole bunch of horses. That's the case for cars too, even if their maintenance needs are a little bit less dire. Ignoring a palomino for a couple of weeks is not going to just mean "clean the ethanol gunk out of the float bowl," it will probably mean that you're going to be facing some well-earned animal neglect charges. So maybe there are some differences, which is exactly why they invented poor horse people.

In the grand tradition of all mercantile capitalism, poor horse people love horses but don't have the money to maintain them. Instead, they are willing to do a bunch of unpaid labour in exchange for the opportunity to ride your horses (which they need anyway, in case the horses forget what being ridden is like, and decide to eat random toddlers instead.) Horses are a luxury good, after all. With cars, this doesn't really happen. They're more egalitarian. If you're too poor to be able to afford a car, you simply finance a Nissan Altima, and never think about voluntarily enslaving yourself to the guy down the street who has a investment-grade Ford GT.

How do we keep cars from following the line of horses? Surely we don't want them slowly becoming an obsolete mode of transportation, maintained by a harem of serfs. My proposal is that we make equines cheaper. Through massive overbreeding of horses, and the subsidy of horse food and conversion of urban Airbnbs to horse apartments, I think we can add at least ten million horses to our city over the next five years. Everyone who wants one will be able to have a horse, which will leave absolutely no time to own a project car. Of course, someone will still need to take care of those project cars, and I humbly volunteer.
