What Is Going On With Gold?

Paultaut mistates:
EU Petrol, (Ex-Taxes) is NOT anywhere near the prices in the USA.
US Petrol, (Ex-Taxes) is 4 times cheaper.
CH Petrol, (Ex-Taxes) is 3.2 times cheaper than EU prices.
(I live in Switzerland and compare frequently ! )
But Paultaut is correct: Petrol Tax represents more than 65% of sales price!

the USA. The Europeans made a decision a long time ago to force their
citizens to use more efficient, higher mileage cars. I do not know what
the tax rate is currently but imagine it is still more than 50%.
