That's the cost of swinging left.
Over here unleaded petrol (gasoline) is €1.60 ($1.95ish) a LITRE (a gallon is approx 4.6 litres) with approx €1.25 of that going to the Government.
Iv been trying to warn you.

Traffic bro, it's a shocking situation at these petrol prices.but your entire nation is smaller than most of our states. driving across our country takes 3-4 days even without stops except for fuel and feces.
my personal best time from sf to new york is 58 hours but i had a lot of whizz jugs in the back seat. you ever try driving and pissing in a bottle at the same time? im just glad i got the scotchguard

The irony is so thick you can wade through it.
Gasoline prices are almost back to "normal". It was in the middle of 2008 when prices peaked at over 5 bucks a gallon. Then of course with the financial crisis and housing market meltdown caused the economy to tank. A quick reminder that that all happened before President Obama was inaugurated. Down went the economy and so did gas prices. Of course that's typical economics. A very interesting chart I saw a while back overlapped economical figures and gas prices. They shadowed each other of course. So now conservatives love to point out that gas was $1.80ish when President Obama took office and now they are close to $5.00. But like I said, they are almost back to normal, further proof that the economy is improving. I lover how people think it is the administrations policies that are causing the spike. People seem to forget very quickly, especially regarding gas prices, what normal is. As a matter of fact, people are quick to forget every time in my anecdotal experience, and it's also reflected in consumer demand.

California's combined federal, state, and local gasoline tax is among the highest in the United States at 67 cents per gallon.
Were they always that high? Nope.. Yet, Government is going to blame it on supply and demand when it gets 13% or more on a gallon of gas. The government is BY far the biggest winner when gas prices rise.

California is God's best moment," says Joel Kotkin. "It's the best place in the world to live." Or at least it used to be.
Mr. Kotkin, one of the nation's premier demographers, left his native New York City in 1971 to enroll at the University of California, Berkeley. The state was a far-out paradise for hipsters who had grown up listening to the Mamas & the Papas' iconic "California Dreamin'" and the Beach Boys' "California Girls." But it also attracted young, ambitious people "who had a lot of dreams, wanted to build big companies." Think Intel, Apple and Hewlett-Packard. Now, however, the Golden State's fastest-growing entity is government and its biggest product is red tape. The first thing that comes to many American minds when you mention California isn't Hollywood or tanned girls on a beach, but Greece. Many progressives in California take that as a compliment since Greeks are ostensibly happier.
Nearly four million more people have left the Golden State in the last two decades than have come from other states. This is a sharp reversal from the 1980s, when 100,000 more Americans were settling in California each year than were leaving.
