People in the rest of the world cannot take you seriously when you whine about costs per gallon and the rest has to pay the same amount per liter.

Well it seems people in the rest of the world don’t know how cost of living, inflation, or necessity work either. The US is structured so you need a car unless you’re one of a lucky few in an urban area not built for cars. The nearest grocery store to me is a 20 minute drive in both directions. The problem isn’t the raw cost of gas, it’s the relative increase in cost which raises the cost of living in step because you cannot live here without a car. It prices people out of getting to their job and going to the grocery store.
