I heard its 30 cents per gallon in Iran. I also heard some cars get 60 miles per gallon. Those cars are not sold in America.
Sure, piece of cake when you're not required to have pollution control on the vehicle. Big, go yank your catalytic converter, off your car, and you give yourself a boost, up to 20% mpg.
Drove by the same gas station today, Friday, at around 3:00 PM, the price is up to $3.799 a gallon for regular unleaded. 10 cent raise in about 30 hours.
I'm sorry, Big, but you're WAY off. I do understand that you've probably never set foot in Vladivostok, but you simply have no idea what you're talking about. The roads here are jammed with cars (from Japan).
Rent here is more expensive than it is in a mid-sized American city (say, Minneapolis, where I've from). For a one-room flat (that's one room with a kitchen and bathroom...that's it), near the center of the city (within 2 kms), you should expect to pay anywhere from 14,000 to 18,000 rubles/month. Divide those numbers by 23.5 and tell me that rent is cheap.
Health care is "free". However, if you want decent care you have to shell out some money (admittedly miniscule in contract to American health care prices).

Tell me about it, this morning, I woke up and I shit a squirrel, but what I can't get is the damn thing is still alive. So now, I've got a shit covered squirrel running around my office and I don't know what to name it.
