Somehow the Europeans are paying $11+ a gallon for gas.

Don’t know how they can’t get a lower price for a gallon.

IMO probably is their own government sucking $8 a gallon out of their peoples with taxes.

True, this is retail price including tax.

I remember reading an article in The Stars and Stripes when I was stationed in Germany stating that it costs pretty much the same to deliver a gallon of gas in Europe as it does in the US. The difference was tax. Europeans pay enormous taxes on their gas.
