The Associates for International Research released some data on Wednesday - July 9, 2008. It is a comparison of gasoline prices. Here is a sample of the data on what a gallon of gas costs:
- Oslo, Norway $9.85
- London, England $8.96
- Paris, France $9.43
- Rome, Italy $9.03
- Berlin, Germany $8.68
- Tokyo, Japan $6.30
- Montreal, Canada $5.57
So the price that you are paying may not seem so bad. That’s until you look at figures like these:
- Caracas, Venezuela $0.12
- Tehran, Iran $0.41
- Riyadh, Saudi Arabia $0.47
As the real estate people say… ‘location, location, location’.

You also have to look at the amount of taxes included in those prices. The US has a lower tax percentage then most of Europe, where in some places it was quoted on the news as being almost $5.00 in taxes per gallon…

Do a currency conversion with the US equivalent next to it so that we may see the real difference.
It would really put it into prospective.
