I think I would enjoy trucking, but as a person born in the 1990s, I grew up in an area supplied entirely by trucks with no substantial agricultural land. One of the retail airstrips with the movie theater and a mall and a supermarket. Our community was connected by automobile transit, internet, and telephone.
I wouldn't want anyone still living like this to go hungry--we don't make the choice to enter the world we find ourselves in, as far as I know--but I can't stomach that lifestyle for myself or my children, or the kin of anyone I've known or met. When I was young it was thrilling, with engines and freeways and drive-thrus. My friends bought cheap sports cars and motorbikes, and there was 100 years of movies to watch.
Now I am older, and I find it inhumane.
