A crass misunderstanding, but sure, if its what you think.
Scandinavians drive a lot
Of course, excuse me while I take the monorail into town to do the weekly shop.
Yes we do.
Oh no, if it isn't the consequences of everyone's collective actions
Lack of empathy for people who inherited their forebearers mistakes is not a desirable character trait.

I have to drive 32 miles (~51 km) one way to my job and there is no public transit anywhere around here.
Maybe Europe should do something about it instead of getting on their knees for trump
Which of the gases are European's paying more than Americans? Is it Argon? Don't they know it's stored in the bulbs? It's basically free.
I don't generally complain to Europeans about anything at all.
Should try to convince people that it's less expensive to drive in Yarp because they buy liters of petrol instead of gallons of gas.
I've suggested this for ages to sell people on metric. Gas sounds cheaper per liter (smaller number), you weigh less in kg, etc. I don't know why gas stations aren't all over this with their shady marketing and 9/10 of a cent pricing.
Americans drive more so pay more, even when prices are higher in Europe
The average American drives twice as far as the typical European (16,000 vs 8,000).
