Disclaimer: The following rant contains personal expressions that should not be construed as containing facts or even beliefs. It's just how I feel about Hummers, and by Hummers I mean the oversized, overweight, under-performing status-symbol SUVs that so many Americans love to drive. Oh, and the fact that as I drive around in my little Miata if one of these ridiculous monstrosities ever runs a red light or veers into my lane (probably as its owner yaps merrily on a cell phone) I probably won't be around to deliver any more rants like this one. I'm sure some good people drive Hummers. I simply wish very strongly that they would choose not to do so. Here are some incentives:
- Nothing says "Conspicuous Consumption" like a Hummer
- Nothing says "Screw gas prices, I'm willing to risk lives in wars and foreign oil dependence for a status symbol!" like a Hummer
- Nothing says "You cannot serve God and Mammon. Guess my choice!" like a Hummer
- Nothing says "I have no concept of ecological carrying capacity or planetary stewardship" like a Hummer
- Nothing says "I wish to appear so rich that I can afford to throw money away every time I fill up" like a Hummer
- Nothing says "I vote Republican and support the Party's big-money friends in Big Oil" like a Hummer
