The price of a Tank of Petrol
 

Islam like Christianity has many versions


And We must be careful not to brand all Muslims as the root
cause................ but focus on
Wahhabi Islam.


The continuing American support to Saudi Arabia is
puzzling


Not only do we have to watch the Americans do nothing about Saudi
Arabia the home of Wahhabi Islam we also have to put up with their
allowing Wahhabi Islam
Preachers to travel to Australia to promote ****


I dont know where the latest one here in Sydney preaching Wahhabi Islam

came from in the USA


But I Think it was Atlanta ...


We could ask the Americans to give Atlanta the falujah Treament on his
return


Yes...look youd get rid of a few of the real troublemakers


Pity about the other innocent residents


They got caught in Cross Fire

It never fails.Everytime we are fixin to go to war with whichever
country,there is a long stream of Aircraft getting out of Dodge.Why is
that,y'all may ask? Glad y'all asked.It is because U.S.fed govt deals
with the enemy (I am not joking either) and allows the rich folks with
their gold and jewelry and wives and families and girlfriends to get out
of harms way.

Must be nice... What's your location? It's $2.33.9 here in Northern MI at
MurphyUSA. Last week it was $2.39.9 Of course, I used my Wally-World
shopping card and saved 3¢ per Gal...

I bought the gasoine for my car at the MurphyUSA gas station at the
other side of the parking lot at the Wal Mart Supercenter store at the
intersection of Highway 18 and Greenway Drive here in
Jackson,Mississippi.(West side of Jackson) The location is one and six
tenths miles South (South is always best) of my couch.I just now checked
www.jacksongasprices.com and it is still the same price right now.For
whatever reason (and I don't know why) the price of gasoline around here
usually is a little cheaper that in other parts of U.S.A.
cuhulin

www.jacksongasprices.com says $2.02 with card at the Kroger store at
I-20 & Springridge Road.That location is about four and a half miles
West of me.All of my vehicles burn regular gasoline.

I am back from a trip to Europe and saw prices for a litre at 1.20 Euro
range. This works out to 4.53 euros per US gal, or about 5.38/US gal in
Europe. We took the train everywhere.....

I was watching this British car show last night called Top Gear. On the
show one of the hosts mentioned that "petrol" was between $8 and $9 U.S. a
gallon in England...

About three years ago when I was listening to the Roger Fredinburg radio
talk show www.regularguy.com a guy in either Texas or New Mexico
phoned into Roger's show and he said he retired from working at an oil
refinery.He explained how gasoline is a waste byproduct of the oil
refineries.Of course the gasoline at the oil refineries is cleaned up
and certain kinds of chemicals are added to the gasoline to make it burn
cleaner and perform better and there is the infrastructure and cost of
delivering the gasoliine (and diesel fuel too) to the gas stations.Los
Angeles (and many other cities in U.S.A.) used to have a very good
trolley car system many years ago untill the crooked Rockefella's had
the trolley system torn down in favor of oil and automobiles.Yesterday
or the day before,I read an article about the mayor of Los Angeles wants
to wean the people of Los Angeles away from their vehicles and on to
public transportation.The price of gasoline is very costly in many more
ways than one.I once read somewhere that most of the people in Europe
drive diesel engine powered vehicles.Jackson used to have a trolley car
system too,I wish the old fashioned trolley cars would come back.Most of
the trolley cars in U.S.A.were sold to South American countries where
many of them are still being used today.Some of the old trolley cars in
U.S.A.many years ago had a platform on the back of them and the trolley
cars were pulled along by horse's.When they got to the top of a
hill,they would let the horse ride on the platform on the down hill
runs.

All you guys have to do, over there in the USA, is make your
vehicles more fuel-efficient. Then you don't have to rely on
middle-eastern dictatorships/colonies to supply the oil. Over here in
Scotland, it's not perfect by a long way, but at least we have cars
which do decent miles-per-gallon (40+). A necessity, with gasoline
over $5/gallon.

Ian, Clydebank, Scotland.

You don't get it,Scotland boy,girl,Minnie Pearl.This is America and we

Oh, I get it alright. You have the right to waste gas with your
big, inefficient vehicles, no matter how much imported oil it takes to
fill them up. That's ok then.

Out of curiosity, I wonder how much of your per-gallon price is the actual
cost of product and how much is taxes or fees?

Most of it would be taxes or fees. The world price of crude is pretty much just
that, the world price of crude. The UK is paying pretty much the same price for
crude as we are.

Our Culture IS Multicultural.




Our Australian soldiers in Iraq, have a military role to play, and that

is to protect other Coalition Forces, Iraqi Public Assets, and the
lives of Iraqi civilians.


The Muslim Community in Australia has been very well treated, and
strongly supported by the Australian people.eg. 500,000 people turned
out to protest against a War in Iraq, before that war broke out. The
activism of individual Australians at their own expense to get a better

deal for asylum seekers has been an awesome expression of our aussie
ideal of 'a fair go for all'. This last can't have gone unnoticed by
our nearest Muslim country, Indonesia.


We have many faults in our national character, however, being perpetual

*******s to the powerless isn't one of them.


Tall Poppies could do with a steel vase though..

I heard someone half-seriously/half-humorously saying that the U.S.
would
be much worse off with more efficient or hybrid fuel vehicles.
Maintaining
the infrastructure relies heavily on all the tax revenue streaming
in from
fuel sales. He added something along the lines of, "If California
outlawed
Petro-Chem, they would be back to dirt roads within a decade!"

What dxAce says is right about the basic cost of producing
gasoline in the UK. It's just that the tax is around 80% of the pump
price, making it possibly the most expensive in the world.

As for loss of fuel tax revenue; money saved by those using
fuel-efficient vehicles will be spent in other ways, presumably
increasing revenue elsewhere, such as with sales tax etc. The problem
will be how to overcome any shortfall when this happens. Higher
taxation is not often a vote winner. :-)

Here in the USA it seems as though some are looking at a tax per mile driven
rather than the at the pump tax. This will overcome the loss in revenue for the
higher MPG vehicles.

If I recall, California was looking at such a scheme.

That's a nice collection of big vehicles you have there. Hope
you'll still afford the price of gas in years to come. For the record,
I'm not too concerned about your gas guzzlers. Just admire the logic
of using up a finite resource in such a wasteful manner, while
"economising" could reap many dividends in the long run.

Oh, and lose the "girl" reference. It's tiresome and I thought you
were capable of higher things.

Do you admire the locic we crazy Cowboys saved y'alls bacon in World War
Two and we will do it again if necessay.Just think of all the gasoline
and diesel fuel and Aircraft fuel and oil and fuel for Ships and
Submarines and Tanks and Jeeps and Trucks and Bulldozers and Generators
and many other kinds of gas guzzlers we wasted on sniveling little folks
like you!
