Sorry Andrew, but I disagree. Your pump price may be higher, but our behind the pump prices puts the US cost way above what others are paying. Most put the cost to be at least $10 a gallon, mostly because we are the ones footing the bill for the defense of the middle east so everyone can get crude. Donations are always welcome <g>

On top of that, the fact that someone pays more than the US is rather irrelevant.

Either way, its all a political boondoggle anyway. Its not as if any of us can exert any control over the prices :-)

John
