But I don´t want to "consume" more than Americans. I want to eat healthy food in reasonable quantities and maintain a sensible weight. I don´t want to own a car and drive 2 hours to work every day, and consume more car ownership - I want to cycle or walk, and stay fit and enjoy the sun. You see the mistake you're making? I lived in the US for 6 years, and could have stayed. It was an easy decision to go back to Europe.
