On the, er... limits of tiny houses
When fools meet sustainability fads, bad things ensue.
Please consider these two points:
- Tiny houses and electric cars have been co-opted by lifestyle salesmen, so save your money or put it toward causes that can help instead, like libraries, homeless shelters, and expanding mass transit
- Why live comfortably when you can spend more for a glorified coffin in the middle of nowhere?
They are all you need, or so I hope, to read and share something that applies perfectly to the actual needs and constraints of many people (yes, NOT all. But many): “The Idiocy of Tiny Houses and Electric Vehicles”.
