The Price Of Gas Where You Live...

$2.85 today.

I don't see why people in Europe or UK or whatever pay so much for gas, when there crude oil barrel price is lower than ours.


I pay £1 a litre for fuel for my car. That is for Super Unleaded.


I think that converts to about $8 a Gallon or nearly 12 Euros.

We get fucked.
 
I know you get fucked but i want to know why. It has to be your government making it higher or something, cus the US pays more per barrel. Kind of weird.
 
Average UK price for unleaded is a little over $6 per US gallon. Fuel tax makes up over half of the price, without that it'd be more like the prices you pay.

Taxes.

The only good thing about the taxation is that it encourages car manufacturers to be more fuel efficient.
 
As of 2005 fuel duty in the United Kingdom is:
47.1 pence per litre (83 ¢/L) for ultra-low sulphur unleaded petrol/diesel
50.9 pence per litre (89 ¢/L) for conventional unleaded petrol
53.27 pence per litre (94 ¢/L) for conventional diesel
27.1 pence per litre (48 ¢/L) for biodiesel and bioethanol (to encourage conversion)
[...]
The U.S. federal gasoline tax as of 2005 was 18.4 cents per U.S. gallon (4.86 ¢/L), and the gasoline taxes in the various states range from 10 cents to 33 cents, averaging about 22 cents per U.S. gallon (5.8 ¢/L).
