   Pretty dumb to use the image/symbol of Che when talking about a car-sharing program but car-sharing programs and other internet based rental programs are the future of ownership of a large swath of goods. It would be in all our best interest to remove such cold-war propaganda and politics for the dialogue about sharing programs, as it only serves to inflame emotions and cloud reality of such programs.

   Textbook rental, Zip Cars, Bag Barrow or Steal, and Rentalic are all services that use the internet to reduce needless consumption while allowing people to fulfill their needs. In the end no matter ones politics thats a goal everyone can endorse.

   I agree with you about Internet-based sharing of cars and other expensive items being a good idea for those who want to keep costs down and only need such things infrequently.

   Amazing, though, the continued popularity of that murderous thug Guevara among modern liberal types.

   Some quotes the Mercedes-Benz people might consider using:

   “The victory of Socialism is well worth millions of atomic victims!”

   “My nostrils dilate while savoring the acrid odor of gunpowder and blood.”

   “A revolutionary must become a cold killing machine motivated by pure hate.”

   “The imperialist enemy must feel like a hunted animal… these hyenas are fit only for extermination!”

   “The N***er is indolent and lazy, and spends his money on frivolities, whereas the European is forward-looking, organized and intelligent.”

   “We must keep our hatred alive and fan it to paroxysm!”

   “(T)o execute a man we don’t need proof of his guilt. We only need proof that it’s necessary to execute him. It’s that simple.”

   Che is popular because he was a good-looking anti-American leftist with a one-syllable nickname that even the most brain-dead zombie on the left can manage to recall and easily chant.
