While I agree time has no intrinsic value, to say time has no monetary value is a bit short sighted. You can do whatever you want with your time, including numerous ways of making money. I do several things outside of my 40 hour work week that provide me with extra spending money. All of these things I would rather be doing than commuting back and forth to that job that still pays the same no matter if I have to commute 1.5 hours a day or .5 hours a day.

I also highly doubt if you ask ecomodders or even just the average joe if they saved 1hr on their commuting time every working day that they would spend that time just driving around for fun.
