I know plenty people who don't have a driving license, let alone a car. Curiously enough they all go to work.

I have managed for ages without a car. Usually hear "but that only works in big cities". I have never lived in a city. Spent all my life in various sized towns. Yes the bus route is shit, no I don't use it. Its faster to cycle to the next town over than it is to take the bus or drive and locking up a bike is free.

Lucky you but perhaps everyone's situation is different?? I used to bike to work (city) but now I can't afford to live within a reasonable biking distance of my current job (not city) so I drive. Thankfully it's only twice a week but I also have family, friends, and hobbies....most of which are out of biking range....
I WISH I could go back to using my bike for everything but I can't so I hate the stupid "I do it so clearly everyone can" mindset so much of the anti-car crowd seems to have.

You must not live in the US. I don't really use my car these days because I can take the train into work and live close enough to the town center that I can bike there. But to get to the next town over? I have an ebike, and there's a well-kept bike path to the next town over (a very uncommon thing in rural US) and it is still significantly longer to bike than it is to take a car to the next town over. Like, 3-4x longer to bike than drive, even if I'm going 15+ mph on the bike.

Wow. This comic is from 1997.

They carpool. That's a step in the right direction.

I feel like I’m missing out on a joke here cause I have a job and can’t afford a car loan.

Only joke here is the author's logic chain

The joke is that this was from 1997 when the cost of living was, compared to today, trivial.

Free housing? Neat
Don't forget free food!
Free clothing and entertainment? I support that!
Plot twist: they live in the car.
And sleep at the office?
