Not fair at all, when Americans pay only $3.50 on average per gallon. Not only that, they use the most petrol out of anyone in the world per capita. The price gap in petrol prices between countries needs to be smaller, it's to wide now. Finally, I doubt Obama has anything to do with it either. |
Or... you know... Europe could just drop all it's stupid gas taxes.
It literally does nothing to help the enviroment because there is far more demand for oil then there is supply.
Every bit of oil/gas that isn't burned in europe is just being burned in south america, china, india, or the US.
All it does is weigh unevenly heavy on the poor and get tax revenue for the government.
