And almost all of the price difference is in taxes.

Great, like I want politicians to have even more of my money; giving
taxing power to politicians is like giving a teenager the keys to a
Corvette, a loaded shotgun, and all the tequila he thinks he can
handle.

Americans aren't wasteful, we produce a lot of the things the world
needs, and then rips off from us (like drugs that cost $100 million to
develop, then some Indian company produces it for 50 cents a pill and
doesn't have to pay any licensing fees).

ObRescue: I always thought of a Land Rover and a Sparc 1000 as being
sorta spiritual kin, anyways...
