yeah dude the US has always had absurdly cheap gas relative to most of the rest of the world, and even now that is still true

[Mando Pandango]

if our gas prices catch up to Europe, maybe we'll actually invest more in bike lanes and high-speed rail

yep 100% and this is such an absurd concept to your average american

i live in one of the most bikeable cities with some of the best public transit and there are still a lot of areas that are legitimately unsafe to get to without a car. don't want to say that we're fucked but it's starting to feel like we're inching closer to an automotive hellscape every day

And just like that, prices are down and the fake crisis caused by the Markets^TM is over.
