The average American commutes 2× the distance than the average UK citizen. Plus there’s rarely a public transit option. So for many this is a doubling of an expense that cannot be avoided.
Personally I don’t see the point in arguing over who has the higher price when we could just be mad that one man caused a global crisis
Plus the average US car consumes much more fuel than the average UK car. So your 2x expense would quickly become a 3-4x expense. A Ford F350 truck happens to be slightly less efficient than a Ford Focus.
But seriously, dirt cheap fuel has caused the demand for fuel efficient vehicles to be near zero in the US. No one would drive these stupid trucks otherwise.
I paid more in the US every 2 weeks for insurance and still had to pay higher prices at the doctor than I pay now for the entire month in Germany.
On paper the salary looks good. Then the hidden costs start
And that depends on your industry. Our upper and middle working class makes more, but the lower working class makes significantly less. Absolutely abysmal minimum wage

Yanks also get paid more than people in most of the world though.
Not when we get fucked for Healthcare we don’t.
