Dear Ron,

To count the current U.S. gasoline blessings in U.S. dollars versus
Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, and U.K . . .

Of course, most of the twice-as-high price is the tax.

Gasolene is about 40 cents per gallon (both US measure) in Iran.

So, we've got a lot more than cheap gas to be thankful for.
