One President with some gonads could get us off of oil in 4 years. Methanol!! Sounds like it's cheap and easy, better than corn ethanol for the evironment. Too bad the oil companies run the show they buy  the elections. When I move to the country I want to make my own alcohol. Gotta figure out how to burn it in my Tracker.

well, in the UK at the moment we are £0.95 per Litre,
thats £4.25 per UK gallon,
and with US$:£ at 2:1 thats $9.50 !!!!!!!!!!!!!,
but your gallons are 1.200950 X ours,
so that becomes  $7.92

I'll bet gas isn't the only expensive item in the UK. Everything has to be imported when you live on an island that has no remaining natural rescources(other than wool and fish maybe). What is the minumum wage over there? ???

nearly £5 per hour, thats $10 !  with income tax at 23%

I'm a banker by career, and my belief has always been that because we have a small land mass, and most taxes ultimately are assessed and collected against land asset value or high income (ie, people who own land by nature) then as our overheads spiral ( supporting the workshy, single mums, imigrants, waste of space politicians ect) then these costs get factored into everything else; prodcution, travel, leisure ect.

I'm just waiting for the 40 years service and pension, and when my old folks toddle off of this mortal coil I'm off to the French Atlantic coast !

plus National Insurance at 11%. Tax rates also increase with earnings.

Wool and Fish, lol. Our sheep farmers lose money due to silly EU regulations and our fish industry nowadays mainly consists of processing fish caught by the huge Russian factory ships. EU regulations restrict the times that our trawlers can be at sea and where they can fish.
We do have a healthy oil industry but the main money making industries seem to be those that don't produce any real goods, insurance, finance and general paper shuffling. Economists refer to it as 'invisible earnings'.
