I live in Fayetteville, Arkansas and the cheapest I can get it for is $2.79 a gallon. For about 2 hours today a local gas station had gas for $1.99 a gallon. I missed it b/c I had to work!

Is it really that cheap in America.  I find it very difficult to convert a foreign gas cost due to the difference in monetary value & measurement (gallon vs litre).\n\nIf it is truly cheaper it probably has to do with the fact that we have a lot of powerhouses in the oil industry in our back pockets.  And those that we don't we intend to change by overthrowing their gov'ts.  Truthfully though, in reading up further on it its about the way a gov't is set up:\n\nThe main factor in price disparities between countries is government policy, according to AirInc, a company that tracks the cost of living in various places around the world. Many European nations tax gasoline heavily, with taxes making up as much as 75 percent of the cost of a gallon of gasoline, said a spokesperson for AirInc.

I paid 25 cents for a gallon of gas in 1971.  I was making $3.80 an hour.  In 2006 I am paying $2.85 for a gallon of gas.  I am making $80,000 a year.  My earnings have gone up, but along with that so have prices of products.  If inflation increases 5.1% for the year you are taking a 3% wage cut.

Not that I am for this--But dear it wouldn't matter and why you ask---well here is an article--this is starting to open up a new can of worms--please understand--Anyone in the world could have all the oil in the world..and it really wouldn't matter at this point...\n\n$3-a-gallon gas: Blame Washington, not Big Oil\nWhat's driving up gas prices? It's not just higher crude costs; it's new regulations.\nNelson D. Schwartz\nMay 3, 2006: 2:20 PM EDT\n\n\n(FORTUNE Magazine) - With gas prices roaring past $3 a gallon and consumer fury rising even faster, Congress and the White House are engaged in a Kabuki-like ritual: pointing fingers at each other over who's to blame, while furiously attacking Big Oil for reaping gargantuan profits - as drivers get hosed at the pump.\n\nIf the politicians really want to figure out who's responsible for the latest round of price increases, though, they'd be better off looking in the mirror. That's because the rise isn't only due to higher crude costs. It's also fallout from some little-noticed provisions in the energy bill passed by Congress and signed into law by President Bush last summer.\n\nBuried in the 551-page energy bill - which was supposed to ease energy shortages, not worsen them - were new regulations governing what additives go into gasoline and how it's refined. Corn-based ethanol is replacing the petroleum-derived additive MTBE, but Congress timed this logistically tricky switchover to occur just as demand for gasoline peaked ahead of the summer driving season - right about now.\n\nThe end result is an extra strain on the refining and distribution system when it can least afford it.\n\n"It's too late now, but Congress has consistently failed to sequence regulatory requirements in a responsible fashion," says Bob Slaughter, president of the National Petrochemical & Refiners Association.\n\nAdds Larry Goldstein of the Petroleum Industry Research Foundation: "The gasoline crisis is made in the U.S.A., not in Iran or Venezuela or Nigeria. At least half the increase in gasoline prices is due to unintended consequences of the energy bill, but no one in Washington wants to admit that."\n\nIndeed, while crude prices have risen 21% since the end of 2005, gasoline is up 37% - a sign of just how stretched the system is. Congress's mistake, says Goldstein, was setting the new law to go into effect 270 days after it was signed - May 5 - rather than waiting until fall, when gas demand is typically on the downswing.\n\nNow the big question is, How high can gas go? Well, perhaps the only good thing that can be said about paying three bucks per gallon is that it seems to be slowing consumption - which should, in turn, reduce prices. Over a four-week period in April, says oil analyst Jamal Qureshi of consulting firm PFC Energy, U.S. gasoline demand dropped by half a percent, to just over nine million barrels a day. That may not sound like much, but it's a reversal from the 1.7% average annual increase in gas consumption the U.S. has experienced over the past decade. If $3 is indeed the tipping point at which consumers change their behavior and alter their driving habits, it's the one silver lining in an otherwise very dark cloud for drivers.\n\nThe wildcard in this scenario, of course, is the increasing risk of a military confrontation with Iran. If that happens, says Qureshi, "all bets are off." Given that crude oil accounts for 55% of the cost of each gallon of gas (refining accounts for 22%, taxes for 19%, and distribution and marketing for 4%), an upward spike in crude oil would push gas up even if the bottlenecks caused by the energy bill ease this summer.\n\nThat's why Red Cavaney, president of the American Petroleum Institute, says the answer in the short term is conservation. Washington is indeed being turned upside down when it's left to Cavaney, Big Oil's chief lobbyist, to talk conservat

Dear Friend,\n\nAmerica, or USA to be more specific? In USA the gasoline is cheaper than South America's countries. We pay around USD 4.5 per 4 liters (97 oct).\n\nI think the solutions is changing to renovable energy such as electricity, hydrogen, butane, etanol, etc.\nGovernment must help to car industrie to change gradually.\n\nRegards,\n\nAlain

In Mississippi, the poorest state in the nation, it's almost $3.00 per gallon in most cities. It's $2.75 in my small town.

You have a truck that gets 13 mpg, my F-350 duelly only gets about 9.  Which reminds me, it is that time of the month and I have to run all my generators for an hour to keep the gas lines from clogging up.

The Gas price problem is a combination of things.No1 because of the moron environmemtalists there are 40 different grades of gasoline in this country, also there is not enough refining capacity because a refiner has not been built in 30 years, and yes we should drill and use our own resourcrs

They say at the start of vacation season. $100.00 Dollars a barrel is their goal. I have heard though that was a farce too, since they move it by the tanker. I saw that on the news..

As I recall, the price went to about .75 to .85 per gallon.  This was about the time I went off to college and I remember thinking how hard it was going to be to make my $ stretch.
