BUT, you can travel anywhere you like for less than two dollars a day. That's less than one British pound. Whereas the London Underground is fucking expensive. Me, I'd rather pay more and have a better Subway here in NYC, but not everyone has my middle-class bank salary and I think it's kind of absurd how much Londoners, particularly those on the periphery - zones 5, 6 and beyond, have to pay to get to work.

We expect things to suck, and totally surprised in the event that they don't, which is rare. Just try taking public transport in LA, and let me know what you think of it..... Oh and Yes you British complain more, you expect things to work, and are always dissapointed when they don't. It's all about lowering your expectations!
