And all this with the dirt cheap gas prices in the US. In comparison to Europe, gas in the US is nearly free...
Sorry to hijack your comment, but seeing that "my grandchildren are in my daughters' ovaries post" right above this one and your comment made me wonder:
Why is gas so damn cheap in the US while saying "healthcare is expensive" is a giant understatement.
Compared with Europe, where gas prices are regulated (and gas stations still seem to be doing just fine to the point that new ones keep popping up around where I live at an astounding rate) while it's the healthcare that is subsidised and made availiable to all.
How come? Why aren't gas companies in the US be as greedy as hospitals and pharma there? Why aren't European gas stations few and far between, continuing to barely hold on, fail and ultimately closeleaving Europe gasless?
They are greedy
However, that quote isn't entirely fair to China.
Also it's Reuters, so kilo of salt.
