Yeah, I get that. smurf me, I'm not answering questions anymore, everyone just assumes that my answer is my opinion. I wasn't telling anyone how I felt, I'm fully aware that different cirucmstances mean different consequences from changes like this, I was just explaining that... yes, gas is more expensive elsewhere. I just answered that and tried to explain why Europeans tend not to be interested in hearing Americans' complaints on this matter. I already explained as much:

Now you can take from this whatever you want, but don't vent your frustration over European ignorance at me, because my efforts to explain why Europeans feel the way they do is a very far cry from how I myself feel.
