Think this post is stupid? Not in Europe!!!

God, if I hear one more person/media outlet/a hole mention how gas prices are so inexpensive here as compared to Europe I am going to vomit with rage. First of all, the entirety of Europe is the size of Rhode Island, so you get wherever you need to go, be it from Rome to London, on less than a 1/4 tank of gas. Second, their cars are a lot smaller and fuel efficient than cars here, so they have already adapted to the high gas prices. So small in fact, that they would fold up into a briefcase ala George Jettson, but the briefcase would be bigger than the car. Also, public transit in Europe is a lot better than here, every town has a train station, so they don't even really need cars. America is a big friggin place. Without a car you are left going greyhound, which doesn't go to the shopping center, so you are screwed. We need cheap gas. Need it. Screw Europe.
