From my friend Jeremy earlier today when he went to fill up for a trip to referee a match at a place I figure the trains don’t get to easily or at all. To give you a more American understanding of this price with a conversion app…€ 2.459/liter = $11.89/gallon. Here I was shocked the White House and Congress weren’t overrun by F-350 owning assholes because we’re at a mere $3.50/gallon. Still isn’t as awful as the days it was around $4/gallon over 17-18 years ago when a different inept, inbred Republican was in the White House with a rubber-stamp Republican House.
I envy the Europeans on a bit of this. Sure the war is more likely going to kick them in the balls on food prices because they were already enduring higher home-utility costs long before Putin gave the nod. However, they have such superior public-transit systems for their urban pockets that car upkeep expenses we Amerikans endure are something more than half can ignore. I hate how not owning a car through this country with the exception of our norther megapolises (NYC, Boston, Chicago and Philly), makes you a third-class citizen on life overall.
