Europe [...] has been subjected to gas prices two and three times what we are currently paying, thanks to a generation of outrageous taxation. If your statement were true, by now Europe should have developed many alternate energy sources, rather than suffer gasoline priced at over $6.00 per gallon. They conserve, by dint of not being huge. America has huge open spaces to traverse. We live further from work than Europeans. The distance from Iowa to New York is greater than the total size of entire =countries= in Europe. They don't need cheap fuel as much as America does. And _gasoline_ in Europe is cheaper than in the USA. The trouble is it is sold bundled with lots of _taxes_.
