Sure, the gas isn't free - because many Americans needlessly use so much of it that it eventually evens out.

Why, if it's so great over there....(yeah right) do you really care about what we do over here?
Well, you can't say that what you do in the US, doesn't have its effect on us.
It drives prices up - with the taxes, even more for us than for you - and sucks wells dry in a hurry.

Oh! I just had a thought.....your bitter and want us to have a crappy life like you do!!!!
Why would I be bitter buddy ?

I don't have the financial issues some of the folks on this forum seem to have - money is not what drives me to consume a bit less.
Some of the comments on here make me wonder how these people get by.

I don't have to worry about health or healthcare - it's taken care of.

I don't have to worry about my job - business is booming.

My holiday for the year is planned ...

What makes you think I'd have a crappy life ?


I'm just painting the picture as it is, and that picture shows a truly gas-guzzling nation where for many, big just isn't big enough.
100 HP isn't enough ... we get by.
The Euro Ford Transit is too small ... we get our work done with it.

How's all that 'free' socialism working for you today.....
We could do with a bit less socialism, but all in all, I wouldn't want to trade permanently with the average American.
