The American VAT is just between 0 and 13% and you only pay 3.91 per gallon of gas. The government is letting you get away pretty easily, I'd say. Here in Norway, an estimated 70% of a man's salary goes to the government in terms of taxes and fees.
At the gas station near my apartment is 4 dollars a gallon and taxes on food have been going up very high everything is taxes in America the taxes will be increseing this year by a large marjon.
Four dollars is still extremely cheap. The Scandinavian VAT of 25% is also very hard to beat.
Four dollars is cheap to a rich family but isn't cheap for me and the income that I live on.

Compared to what the Brits, French, Norwegians or Danes pay, it's extremely cheap. Typically, it's 3-4 times as expensive in Europe, even though the US has hardly any oil production per capita
Typically, a full gas tank is one and a half days worth of work in Norway, if you have a degree.

Just because it is chepaer over here doesn't mean we don't pay a arm and a leg for food or gas it's not cheap if you live on a income that is in the 99% class in america If I was in the 1% class I would have no problems with money.

It's extremely cheap if you're an average Joe with an average salary as well. There are no non-OPEC countries whatsoever where gas is cheaper in terms of purchasing power.

Yes if that average joe comes from a very wealthy family for me how ever nothing is cheap when I go shopping for anything I pay a arm and a leg for it.

Even if you're living on a social security check it's cheap. Maybe you should take a look at what people in other countries pay for gasoline. I don't think there's any country in the world where you drive a car with a V8 and leather seats and at the same time is "poor".

I didn't say that you did. But if you did, you'd still get gas cheaper than Europeans.

True but lower middel class americans still pay almsot as much as Europeans at the pump and in stores as well.

Nope. A gallon of petrol in Great Britain is 10-11 USD, yet the Brits don't earn more money than you do. Where European politicians tax gasoline heavily, your politicians subsidize it heavily. This is a gift and not a given right, especially given that the USA land area offers very little oil by itself; Americans shouldn't complain before the price reaches 8-9 USD per gallon.

Petrol is the UK term for gasoline. Europeans have every right to complain about gas prices; here it's taxed, not subsidized.

It should be subsidized in Europe I agre the way they handle gas in Europe is not helping the people at all . It is taxed in america but the government is the one making a profit off of gas which they use to help fund the war in the middel east.

I eat very few carbs, no oils or soda or refined sugars or fast food; nothing after 5 PM.
I try to spend two hours a day on the treadmill, but have been known to spend 6.
Being vegan is due to ethics, but all the other stuff is due to how easily I gain weight.
If I could eat absolute garbage and sit around and not gain weight, I would, in a heartbeat.
I can empathize with the liking salty things. I can enjoy a glazed donut as much as the next person, but my lust is for salty and spicy things.
I think it's essential to mention that this type of lifestyle isn't too healthy for a normal individual.
Right, because normal people are made healthy with animal products, oil, sugar, and fast food?
No, when did I say that?
It's fine to eat animal products as long as you don't eat them in excess and choose good sources of meat.
But your habits aren't very healthy for a normal individual. You have to realize that, at least.
Not the habits of mine which you quoted, no.

That's funny; I was just thinking the same thing this morning, in relation to hebrew/jewish use of dairy. ie. Why did they separate it up from certain other foods, even to the point of keeping special crockery and cutlery for it ... so that the food opioids, or the milk-sugar, in it didn't contaminate other foods? Though wheat has its own food opioid in the gluten in it, perhaps there *is* something particular about the one in dairy, our original/million-year old "baby-food", which triggers something different in our bodies.
And am struck by how Moses, or someone, wrote so many lists with just slight variations, of rules for diet etc, exactly like I do/have done for years now, trying to work out the best foods to eat, the best combinations to eat them in, the best ways to cook them, and the best times to eat them.

Eating around 500 calories a day and 6 hours on the treadmill isn't a healthy lifestyle. It's not a normal routine.
