Of course you do realize that there are millennia of development and change to get to the horse and cart point, and of course development continues today.we would all be getting from A to B in a horse and cart

Whenever an honest man discovers that he's mistaken, he will either cease to be mistaken or he will cease to be honest.

What on earth has insecurity got to do with the development of the luxury car from the humble horse and cart?mainscablesrus wrote: ↑Wed Jan 29, 2020 9:17 am Insecurity has nothing to do with it sir, we would all be getting from A to B in a horse and cart if that was the case nas no one would buy a luxury car would they?
Imo the car was developed from a need and not a want. There is a distinction, a great distinction. Again, imo, the car was developed from a need to get from a to b at a speed greater than 10mph, absolutely nothing to do with insecurity.
I have to admit that my original post was touching on the subject of want versus need, but it appears that you may have identified with the point by defending it where no defense was actually wanted, or needed. Insecurity?

You can't change how people treat you or what they say about you. All you can do is change how you react to it.
