To give you a lough for the day, and maybe you fell better about your fuel

Gernerally, fuel prices over here in EU are around 1,00 Euro PER LITER
(quarter gallon), so don't complain about high prices.
European fuel prices are that high in large part because of very high taxes.
Helmut has been informed.
The tax revenues are used for the roads and also to subsidize bus, transit
(Metro) and rail service. Unlike the USA, public transportation in Europe is
not expected to make money or even to meet its own expenses.
Where in America does public transportation meet its own expenses?
