DAMN!!! I miss those days.

Mexico is selling for ~ $2.00. (But that only works when I happen to be in Nogales for whatever reason)

How does that happen ? Here we are being forced to pay higher prices because each barrel costs more. Fine. Then how come the difference is so great between us and someone like them if it's not all on taxes/profits ? They're saying our prices are NECESSARY. Does Mexico get it from somewhere we don't know about ?! That must be it.

ah, i see. locally we have the "Gas Bandit" - who randomly pops in @ gas stations to pay for people's gas. also sponsored by a radio station, go figure.

And Norway wants to know how we get it for $3 when they pay like $6 now... Hard to compare across national borders.

Their gas costs the same, they just get taxed like 100% on the price of it.
