It could always be worse: ![[Linked Image from img208.imageshack.us]](http://img208.imageshack.us/img208/3066/00001lm8.jpg) Took this last night at the local gas station. Keep in mind that there is approximately 3.79 liters per gallon. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />

I just filled up at $3.29 per gallon and thought it was outragous. Guess I need to quit complaining <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/footinmouth.gif" alt="" />

Diesel in the UK is $2.24 a litre (I worked out the currency conversion for you!) if you find it cheap... I don't think you guys have too much to complain about on this one! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

You win Paul! However your fuel prices have always been crazy. I can still remember paying well under $0.50/liter. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

Bit better than our $8.49 diesel gallon then! (I don't know an exact current petrol price as I haven't filled that car for a week or so.. It's *roughly* $2.06 per litre)
That darn Al Gore made a crazy situation even worse!!

Alright i had this debate with my buddy the other night who is a right wing nut job, politically speaking.
He brought up the price in the UK, etc... blah blah blah... I get tired of hearing that pitch to justify or somehow dull the point that gas prices in America are high! Who cares what the price of gas in the UK is? When is the last time you bought a gallon or litre of gas in England? Bringing up points that dont affect the American people doesnt do much to down the argument that gas is high in the USA. Just my opinion.

Step away from the keyboard or take it to the political forum at Bladeforums.com ... This is an international forum & we are having fun. Do you have the same problem with me posting Canadian prices?
