These are pump prices people have to pay. No story there.

What it's made of is of course a mixture of components that make the 
price. In Finland, roughly 75% of gasoline price is taxes.
High taxes on everything buys everyone superior healthcare and welfare 
system. And street lights. :)

In Venezuela, they pay .12 a gallon. (and cry about high gas prices).
In middle east, 50-70 cents. Oil producing countries subventing their 
own industry to keep people and businesses mobile in low income
environment.
