I keep seeing videos with americans complaining about not having public transport,
Like why would you want public transport if you can have a car and petrol and running a car in general is so cheap, just get a car

@Miss Wow, I genuinely didn't know how expensive cars were in usa
was always taught they were cheap in usa

Well honestly I don't know how much more expensive they are here in comparison to how much they are everywhere else. But I'm just speaking for people in my income level and know that many of us cannot purchase a car unless there is some expense we are free of like housing cuz we still live with our parents etc.
I see in your profile that you are from Scotland so from what I know you all have free healthcare. Here in the U.S. we do not and healthcare bills are a huge issue in the U.S. Also Scotland, from my understanding, also has free college, the U.S. does not and student loans are another huge issue. Bearing all this in mind it just makes having a car be a risk. Obviously many people still own a car but they could never really replace the roll public transit has. Also gas price average is higher in U.S. than in Scotland/

@Miss oh, I see,
that sucks,yeah, the US should move to at least having necessary healthcare covered by a hybrid system,
yeah, college and uni over there is so expensive, for no real reason, even if you were to pay for to go to western Europe, it's be around double in most cases
Yeah, but subsidies should be given to cars in order to try to get as many people driving as possible
Petrol prices are MUCH more expensive on average here (around 8 or 9 dollars a US Gallon here (yes I looked up how much a US gallon is, cause America love to be different for imperial), compared with around 1 to 2 dollars a US Gallon)
