kinda hard for square wheels to roll, aint it?

Because the government makes more vehicle taxation off of circular wheels? In actuality square wheels would be more gas efficient, and better on the eys......
Also, for that matter.....why do we call wheels "wheels"? Would a wheel by any other name roll as easy?

Because square wheels can't roll, dear, and we need to be able to roll things on the ground instead of lifting or dragging them. Wheels cause less friction.
Less friction=Easier to move.

Because corners weren't invented until 1362 in China.

Bill Gates and Oprah had already patented that shape in case they needed it in the future. Or more likely, to prevent someone else from having it.

Ahh we tried that, kept tearing up the streets. Round ones are much easier on the blacktop.

A better question would have been, "Why aren't wheels made of concrete and roads made of rubber?"

Long Rides are uncomfortable

Because they wouldn't fit on the round rims if they were.
