    AUTONOMY: the LIBERATING BENEFITS of a SAFER, CLEANER, and MORE MOBILE SOCIETY America’S Love Affair with the Automobile Has Become a Cliché, Often a Snide One

    Labor of Love: A Fred Smith Story AUTONOMY: THE LIBERATING BENEFITS OF A SAFER, CLEANER, AND MORE MOBILE SOCIETY America’s love affair with the automobile has become a cliché, often a snide one. But in the early days, there was real passion. “You know, Henry, your car lifted us out of the mud,” a farmer’s wife living near Rome, Georgia, wrote to Henry Ford in 1918. “It brought joy into our lives. We loved every rattle in its bones.” Even American reformers and intellectuals were favorably inclined. In his 1916 book, The Romance of the Auto Industry, James Rood Doolittle expressed the belief that the car would “increase personal efficiency … make happier the lot of people who have led isolated lives in the country and congested lives in the cities; [and] … serve as an equalizer and a balance.” Conservationists saw the automobile as a great advance— no longer would vast quantities of fertile farmland be lost feeding horses. And, with mobility, rural youth might even stay on the farm, rather than rushing away to the big city. But those early positions have long vanished. Today’s intellectuals and reformers have little respect for the automobile—or for automobile culture. The car’s very convenience seems an indulgence, a waste of resources and money. “The Soviet Union’s greatest contribution to world peace was the fact that it did not put a car in every Soviet citizen’s garage,” says Ralph Nader. Political activists such as Nader have no monopoly on hostility to the automobile. Among the well-educated and well-to-do, nostalgia for train travel and paeans to subways are as common as complaints about traffic congestion.
