I think people confuse oil prices in europe and the us- without considering the differences in taxes. The French get 3 months of paid vacation- guaranteed jobs for life, better food and wine for their $7 gas. It's all relative. Both gasoline and jet fuel- without the tax differences are the same.

Your point is a tax arguement- not a price of gasoline arguement.

We're getting gouged- unless what I think is a 50:50 bet- the guy truly believes his mission from God is to take out Iraq and were about to do that before he leaves office.

That would explain the spike.
