This is sort of overblown. In very few situations will you wait in traffic for 3 hours. There are plenty of roads that flow with only minor traffic delays outside of the big cities.
Still need trains. Fast trains. Choo choo!

Unless you're being transported somewhere as cattle, traveling for work is a choice.
Uh, it's like comparing the best life you could have in Western Europe with the worst life you could have in American suburbs.
It's no different from comparing an American surgeon earning 400k yearly in Manhattan to a person surviving in Belarus or Albania. Same bias but flipped in opposite direction.
Both comparisons would be unfair.
I am not saying life is worse in the EU than in the US, but there are many better ways to argue that more logically using data.
Just how bad is the European commute that they need to go through the alps at 200mph everyday?
