But, Finn. Don't we have a constitutional right to giant, oversized, luxury vehicles and gluttonous overconsumption? Wasn't that one of the founding principles of our Great Nation? It is my right as a True Patriot to drive to the corner 7-11, a grand total of 1/8th of a mile to get a Slurpee and 'tater chips! FREEDOM, FREEDOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
