Tangential: I'm always baffled that Americans consider prices like this expensive. In Germany, gas goes for €1.20-€1.50 per liter (which is $5.22-$6.52 per gallon).
- bebna 8y agoWhere do you get those prices? Since months[1] it is more like 1.45-1.60€/l ($6.311-$6.964/gal) for regular petrol. In 1.519€/l($6.611/gal) are 0.8678€/l($3.777/gal) taxes[2]. What they see as a expensive price, we only pay to the fiskus alone!

I don't have a car (or a driver's license, for that matter), but I drive by gas stations sometimes. > What they see as a expensive price, we only pay to the fiskus alone! I find it hard to believe that the US does not have any taxes on gas whatsoever.
