27 cents a gallon is quite a lot.
- pjc50 10y agoHasn't US petrol prices seesawed from $4 to $2 fairly recently? Of course, over here in the UK it's £1.10/liter, which is about $6.
- pkulak 10y agoGas prices vary by that amount just from state to state.
- lmkg 10y agoAnd that variance is also considered "a lot."
- VLM 10y agoAnd that will just be the start.
- hyperbovine 10y agoCompared to inundating Manhattan? Perspective.
- astrodust 10y agoNo it isn't. US gas prices are comically low compared to virtually every other country on the planet. The exceptions are countries with stupidly low gas prices like Venezuela and Saudi Arabia. If this tax was applied it wouldn't push America into European levels of pricing. It wouldn't even nudge it into Canadian pricing levels.
