I noticed my local garage selling unleaded petrol at 117.9 pence per litre yesterday ... if we times this by 4.546 into imperial gallons then we get £5.36 a gallon!! ..I am not sure of the exchange rate but isn't it like double?? ... so our petrol is costing us about $10.72 a gallon!!

All I hear is you guys moaning the price of fuel ..stop that!! ..lol ..we're all dying over here ...

WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

 

*Sucks* doesn't even begin to describe prices like that.

 

That sucks, but isn't your medical, dental and vision also free? Your last stay in the hospital cost you how much?

Here is snip ofan artical I found


In the U.S., about 11% of the final cost per gallon is from taxes. At the $4.00 per gallon average cost, this means that $0.44 is tax and $3.56 is the pretax cost per gallon. Europe’s prices, on the other hand, are comprised of 70% taxes and 30% pretax cost. Taxes on the $8.70 average per gallon cost are $6.09 and the pretax cost per gallon is $2.61. Wait, did you catch that? If you disregard taxes, Europeans pay $0.95 LESS than Americans for one gallon of gasoline.

just FYI not a burn jules

 

My hospital stays and treatment were all covered by the NHS ... we have to pay for dental work and our eyesight too though ...
