This is the problem.

Somehow, our population casually descended into a defaulted position that the barriers are normal, and that removing them is absurd. With no reason, logic, or education, we were somehow all convinced that this is how it should be.

People ask me all the time, and are shocked to find out that a) the delay will be small, and b) that I would put up with that little delay on a daily basis.

I'm notoriously impatient, but what???
