    before you say anything about the price of gas in the US why dont you look at the taxes the other countrys put on there gas.

    australia has 3 times the taxes on a gallon of gas then the US so there is no comparison to the rest of the world.

    http://aydin.net/blog/2006/01/12/gas-costs-around-the-world/

    This is over a year old but the tax rate are still the same.just.Some of them are over a dollar a gallon.

    so you should check your facts before you make judgement on what the US pays compared to the rest of the world for a gallon of gas.

    So you are saying if the rest of the world wants to jump off of a high cliff to their death we should too????????????????????????????????????????

    Lots of smarts in that analogy.

    Time to stop selling our domestic crude to Japan.

    Due to post WWII treaties we sell crude at low cost to Japan and then end up repurchasing oil at higher prices from OPEC.

    What gives. Hate to sound rude, but it is time this country looked out for ourselves and let the reast of the world do the same.
