Europeans Pissed at EU for High Gas Prices

We all know Europe is way more liberal than the United States. There’s so much that’s subsidized and socialized.

So why do they have high gas prices?

And why are the people so upset?

Gas costs roughly twice as much per gallon in Europe as it does in the US and that’s largely due to TAXES.

How else are European countries expected to pay for subsidized transportation?

Remember, folks - government/universal healthcare and other government programs AREN’T FREE!!! You pay for them through your taxes.

Another reminder - so many of you want to blame Bush for high gas prices too. But if the liberal politicians in Europe can’t stop them, then your complaints are misguided. It’s good ol’ supply and demand!
