Angry about Gas Prices? Good News (in a way)
by Debra Rose (Age: 21)
copyright 09-07-2005


Age Rating: 1 to 127

 
All prices in US currency

Gas Prices Around the World As Of 8/21/2005
Belgium $6.17
France $5.74
Germany $5.99
Italy $5.91
Netherlands $6.63
U.K. $6.21
U.S. $2.80


So before going "road warrior" and bum rush tailgating the rest of us, or taking out your anger at the pump on the rest of us drivers, chew on this.

This is for all the people who get a kick out of others miseries. And to all of you in the other countires who have to pay a lot more than us...for fear of karma, I supress my laughter at you. :-D

Woah! The gas price went up a lot! When I was in america it was 1.99 or something like that... I might be wrong. But its soooo high in Korea. I go dizzy when i see the gas prices. But theres a new type of gas called LPG. So its like half the price of regular gas. My mom got that kind of car on purpose. ^.^;

The prices are now 3.50 at the least....
at least where I live, that is.
Anyways, this makes me feel much better, but the prices really are outrageous.
wowie, I never realized how bad other people have it.
I'm feeling lucky.
thanks, deb, for brightening my day.

Here in the UK it has just gone up again. Depending on which part of the country you live in, it can cost as much as $7.00 per gallon.
It is expected to rise even further.
Don't forget, all other goods will go up in price. Pleasant thought. More oil wars to come.

Wow! I didn't realize that gas prices were so high in other countries. I noticed you skipped Canada. I would be interested to know what our prices are per gallon in US dollars so I could compare. Im think we're paying a lot more than you guys are in the states.
Today, gas is $1.35 per LITER!(Canadian currency). Two weeks ago, it was hovering around 95 cents per liter and five short years ago, it was about 45 cents per liter!
To figure out the current rate per gallon in US dollars, you'd have to do a little converting, but if you have the time, I'd be curious to know the result.
Lucky thing I don't drive, I guess!
