PW> We pay $5 in Poland. Happier?

we pay 1.23$ .liter 4.92$ /gallon

... Extreme boredom serves to cure boredom.

Yes, exactly. The thread imposed the imperial units, hence my approximation of $5 per gallon, exact up to

1.6% of the value provided by you.

Best regards, Piotr

Yes, it is a well-known fact. The exact amount of various taxes is 64.54% in the case of gas.

Not quite... ;-(

Best regards, Piotr

But you get some government services out of the tax. We don't get much service from big oil, not even at the pump.

Stop whining and get a life. ...Jim Thompson

Sure you do, just like 'picking up the soap' in a jail shower setting would get you.

1.23 per liter is $4.65 per U.S. gallon or $5.58 per manly Imperial gallon.

Stop kidding, Edward, please...

Yes, but of course, your government services are as good as ours. LOL.

Am i dreaming or gas price here came down significantly lately? Some less than $3 in San Jose today. Perhaps the oil companies are taking my threat (transporting my own gasoline) seriously. They are moving their gouging ta rget to the mid-west. I.e: from XOM to BP.

Or perhaps they are trying to unload the summer gasoline before Sept 15.

Well, they do "service" us.

Oil went under $40/bbl yesterday, I believe. Gas should be under $2 but hasn't moved (here).

Who knows what they do in CA.

ss thanb $3 in San Jose today. Perhaps the oil companies are taking my thr eat (transporting my own gasoline) seriously. They are moving their gougin g target to the mid-west. I.e: from XOM to BP.

When i first posted this 3 weeks ago. SF, CA gasoline was $1.50 more than Phoenix, AZ. Today, it's more like $0.50 to $.75 more. We can only be jea lous of your low $2 gas, but $3 is much better than $4.

Duopoly supply and price manipulations. There was no real shortage, of cou rse the regulators are too blind to see it.

No, I meant that it hasn't moved here. It's currently about $2.50/gal. It *should* be under $2.00, with $40/bbl oil.

That's why oil is under $40/bbl? No, you have to look no further than your politicians.

$40 a bbl is $1.27 a gallon for crude. I needs to be transported, refined, transported again, stored, pumped, taxed, and sold, at under a 2:1 markup. Gas is cheap.

It will be under $2, when they switch to the cheaper winter gasoline after Sept 15. My point exactly, no where else got the spike up and down for the past month as in the SF area. Transport cost? We have a big refinery clo se by.

Our local politicians contribute to the $0.50 premium. The additional $1 p remium was pure and simple manipulations.
