USA gas price

[samhill]

I see in Iowa reg gas at US$2.80 for 3.78 litres. Roughly 89 cents per litre CDN. Guess no fuel tax in IA?

rallying U.S. dollar contributing downward pressure on American gas prices as cost of inputs dropping.

So why is their gas always cheaper.

[errolanderson]

taxes, but that's why you have health care . . . .

[blackpowder]

Ah yes, if only the fuel taxes went to health care.

How about the roads? Now wouldn't that be a novel idea for Sascratchandwin!!

We need a sugar and fat tax along with liquor and tobacco taxes for healthcare.

And a food tax to subsidize the Ag "Industry", Producer's would be in charge of distributing it.

Minneapolis $2.85 too according to Gasbuddy. That's about 80 cents a liter. I guess the Americans don't need much gas tax to buiild those super freeways and overpasses. That's prolly the cost of freezing and heaving.
