    I’m an American living in Germany and married to a German. The first time I brought him to the US, he thought we paid way too much for gas because he forgot it wasn’t by liter.

    He’s been driving for over twenty years and he’d never seen as low a price as the ones posted right next to the airport in New York City.

      People forget that the largest oil producer in the world is America.

      Probably because all the other top producers actually use the money to build national infrastructure and oligarch palaces instead of just the palaces.
