Would they, though? We pay high fuel taxes in The States, too. The global prices for fuel are manipulated by the City of London, the World Trade Org, the market speculators, and the Central Banks for [their] benefit.
There's absolutely NO reason why, when the U.S. is a NET EXPORTER of oil/fuel, that we should be paying more than $ 0.99/gal at the pump. We have ZERO control over what we pay for oil and fuel. We're in the same boat as the Irish, imho. We just don't suffer as much at the pump b cause we drill, baby drill. It helps offset the price for us, but we're still in the same boat.
