Seriously, would you pay 6 bucks a gallon for gas like British people do in UK?
EU should join America if they want to have better life and economy

The British also have an affordable alternative to their high gas prices, mass transit. They have buses and subways where as most of America is too sparsely populated to make those things feasable, sure we have subways in the major cities, but look at AMTRAK, it is on the verge on bancruptcy from the cost of trying to maintain a nationwide railway system.
Phoenix, look at a map, what's the biggest differences between the United States and say The Netherlands, United Kingdom, Belgium, Germany, France? Let's see, the United States has roughly twice as many people spread out over ten times as much area with 51% of the population living withing 50 miles of the Pacific, Atlantic, Gulf of Mexico or Great Lakes, a lot of empty area in between. Mass Transit systems don't work when there isn't a large enough population to support it.

Thats true, but the US has done exactly the same thing, perhaps you remember the stink about the steel tarifs? When Bush (mainly to curry votes in West Virginia) imposed taxes or Foreign steel. The US and EU are competitors and each will do whatever it takes to keep the other out of its market.
Damien said:Phoenix, I don't think I ever said that the US should join the EU and I certainly don't think it would bring prosperity and wealth to all, it will merely lower the prices of a Mercedes in America and Cadillacs in Germany, since the only difference between the two cars is the name and the $10,000 in extra taxes you have to pay for a Mercedes.
Taxation, is that where other countries pay to import goods to the US, but are not allowed under trade agreements, to tax US companies importing into other countries?
