What is the average commute in these European countries? What is the availability of public transportaton?
Yep. I really get tired of that misrepresentation, but since there is no real way to justify the raping of our wallets by Big Oil...
I'm still looking for that station where I can fill my tank with gas from "Little Oil". Given the cost of exploration for resources, drilling, pumping, shipping, refining, and distributing the product, I'm not holding my breath. I guess it's just so much easier to curse the companies that bring us a commodity that we all need on a daily basis if we lump them under the derogatory sounding title of "Big Oil".
"Big" refers to their obscene windfall profits, and the fact that they are a very Un-American monopoly.
