In Rochester NY all buses are $1 for standard fair. Not sure how they do it, 
just a well run efficient system (that most people don't use).

They probably have more public mass transit than we do as well. I rode the bus 
in Madison, Wisconsin, today and it only cost me $1.00 because I am "senior".

How many cities in the US have that deal?

£1.35 is about $2.06 right now.  They're paying about twice what we do.

On the other hand, they have a system where no one has to pay to go to the 
doctor or the hospital.

Fair trade.

Yup, and the higher value of the British pound makes the differential even 
worse.

You guys have a bargain.  In the UK we are paying £1.35 per litre!

Mr. DeHaan,



U.S. changeover to the metric system of measurement right now would soothe the 
sore eyes of motorists purchasing gasoline. A national average price of $3.79 
per gallon translates into $1.00 per liter.
