uhh in other countries their cost of living is different and their minimum wages are all different so its 2 different soceities thatis hard compare. And it isn't Bush's fault, if any other retard was the president they would be blamed for everything as well...don't hate just read up on something before you complain...

$2.19 on 93 here in north jersey... it actually went down though. it came from i think around $1.97 then rose to $2.27 in like a week then dropped down to $2.19. and it seems that its holding at that price around my area but will probably rise...

I know that the minimum wage here is $5.15 per hour where in Australia it's over $7 per hour. Gas prices in America are around $2.30 per gallon where in Australia I think it's around $1.10 per litre. If you do the math that would mean that 1 US gallon is equal to 3.78 litres. That means that Australians pay around $4.15 AUD per gallon or $3.19 US per gallon. Take the minimum wage of say $7.25 AUD and that is around $5.60 US. So yes Australia pays more for petrol than we do but they make a little more also. I haven't researched the UK but the economy is similar to Australia. For those of you that don't believe my research I have an Australian standing here next to me that said that sounds about right. She did say that in the Adelaide area it's about $1.20 AUD per litre.

It's $NZ 1.31/L for 98 octane here in NZ at the moment - works out to around $NZ 4.96/gallon or $US 3.55/gallon.
