so how about that christmas gift?
The $9.57 is how much it costs per gallon in USD give the price in euros per liters that you provided… your math was slightly off. Keep in mind that the average take home income (ie after all taxes) in your country is twice what the average take home income is over here. Your cost of living is also comparable with the way current exchange rates are right now. So your current prices are very comparable in that it is affecting us EXACTLY like it is affecting you. The world is suffering high gas prices everwhere even with the price discrepencies the residents of those countries are affected just the same... the US has it worse in some respects because of the size of our country.
