On the gas prices; Jome's actually complaining that the prices are TOO low in America. No; they're too high everywhere else. In my state, gas is at about 2.19 right now. Ultimately, you can't complain about the prices of gas wherever you are, because if it was THAT big of a deal, enough to get upset about, just move to somewhere where they're lower. Of course you'll never do that, you wouldn't have anything to bitch about then.

HHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

who's to blame? The oil companies. European cars eat up gas as much as American cars.
ppl need to buy Hybrid cars
Los Angeles/San Diego has great transportation just too many people with cars and there nothing you can do during rush hour traffic that's just life even if it's starts backing up at 1pm Los Angeles even has a Subway which many outsiders don't even know about http://www.urbanrail.net/am/lsan/los-angeles-map.gif
Here's what I always find funny about these type of arguments, and I'll bet nobody on the board thinks like me on this one.If it's THAT big of a problem; move. For instance, the guy in L.A. that says how shitty public transportation is... well, dogg, that's THERE. HERE, we have good transportation. You can get all the way across the city in a car, in about half an hour on the interstate, or you can take a bus, through downtown, in about an hour. We live in a populous with well over a million people, which isn't L.A., but why live somewhere where you complain about all that shit? If you don't like it, just move somewhere where it's better.
