We pay about EUR1.20 (US$1.44) per liter gasoline, of which EUR0.90 to
0.95 are taxes. With 4.55 liter being a gallon, and the Euro at about
US$1.20 we pay roughly US$5 taxes per gallon (no, this is no mistake!).

Actually there is a mistake.  1 gallon = 3.8 liters, not 4.55 liters.

Actually, both are correct. 1 US gallon is 3.785 litres, 1 UK gallon is
4.545 litres. One more reason to go metric.


Now I know why 10 gallon hats are so small. ;)
