you will eat more if you're burning a lot more calories. you will do more laundry with commuting every day. you will wear out more kit commuting every day. it's also the time thing. i just dont have the hours/day to commute. time is money, after all.
Since we Americans do not pay the true cost of owning car I agree.
However at some point we all have to take responsibility for the footprint we create. I commute 8 miles a day 4 miles each way because its fun but also I get to be a self-righteous jerk.
