QUOTE:This has been discussed before. AFAIK gas (petrol) costs about the same worldwide, with a few exceptions. What isn't the same worldwide is the tax added to the cost of this gas. I've read that in some European countries the tax comprises almost 75% of the at-the-pump price.
In the high gas tax countries is highway infrastructure receiving full value (upkeep, updates, new construction, etc) for the taxes paid? If not, perhaps it's time to "talk" to the government about the real cost of gasoline.

You ARE joking of course??
