The remarks of politicians
about what is paid in Europe, or anywhere other than the USA,
have been made to
try to get US citizens to go along with higher
gas prices without a revolt.
Al Gore said we "needed" higher gas
prices.
It doesn't matter to me what someone
pays in another part of this world.
When you have no wells and no refineries
you pay what it takes... and then get the hell
screwed out of you by added government
taxes.
We have oil reserves, sources of oil, refineries, and
distribution.
Now, we have added taxes and higher prices and we are told we
should be grateful.
Gasoline is about $1 a gallon in Central America.
Let's vote everyone out and start over with people who will
represent us.
Please go back to discussions of Forward Look vehicles and
happier topics than the idea
that we should be thankful for our gasoline
prices.
southern Ohio, USA.
Well, that is close
to about right: almost $10 a gallon.
Won?t keep me from
driving my doggies around, but we?re thinking twice (doing math) about
visiting further away family and friends?

prices
Just
curious, as I was recently fondly looking back on the day two or three years
ago when gas prices took a sudden jump from around $1.75 to around $2.50 a
gallon seemingly overnight and everyone was up in arms. At that time, we
were reminded that in Europe they were already paying $3.50 - $4 a
gallon.
Of
course, we here in the US kinda scoffed that it would ever get that high for
us!
So,
now that we have passed $3.50 and are quickly on the way to 4 bucks a gallon,
I was just curious what our European friends are paying today for a gallon?
(Yes I know they buy liters, not gallons, but maybe they're smarter than me
and can do the conversion?) $8?
$10?
