It’s all very… proletarian. Personally, I’m all for making it all very bourgeois, instead: just as cheap in the long run, and more comfortable getting there. Although there are people out there who actually have a problem with that; I’d call them ‘Puritans,’ except that we rather inaccurately use that term in modern society…
