As an American I find it endlessly amusing when Europeans poke fun at us, the history of the 21st century so far makes it almost too easy. The jokes write themselves.

- ackidacki 8y agoDo you have research that shows clean diesel makes people live? Maybe you should pipe diesel to a tank containing a person, err wait not a person a money... Oh wait. Volkswagen did that.
