One design to rule them. One powertrain to run them.

Variety and competition are wasteful. Unnecessary, as Efficiency is the advertising buzzword all here have bought into. Any subject. The limit to what cars can do isn’t worth pursuing any longer. There’s enough info to have a single pattern.

The suppositions supporting “efficiency “ are worth more in examination. That keeps one out of the rat maze designed to occupy mental (emotional) real estate better used in other ways.

Societal efficiency ISN'T your friend.

Keeping the game going long enough the wealthiest can cash out at the opportune moment is all that’s happening any longer. Along with that which increases their future advantage. Think, genetic stratification (the Chosen, but without the world’s worst inbred genetic problems).

It’s too many people on the planet, and nothing will change it except a cull. A planet full of useless eaters can’t save itself. No government thus far has the rectitude to address it head-on. They’d personally be at risk.

Time to unveil the aliens. Not shape-shifters, but blame shifters. (And handy targeting data courtesy of the NSA).

90-100 IQ is the goal. And not too many of The Interchangeables ever again. Their efficiency won’t be marred by either slovenliness or thinking done outside prescribed norms.

An SUV-like vehicle will be fine. Legal use thoroughly defined.
