It is sorta funny watching Americans pay gas prices that many parts of the world actually already paid.
We have poor public transit and on average longer commutes. That makes it hurt the average person a lot more
Don't forget the absurdly big and fuel-hungry cars.
That's mostly fueled by cheap fuel (heh) .
Toyota really started to take off in the 70s when oil got bit more expensive.
What's ironic is that for most of America they're paying those amounts on top of government subsidies
