You'll also notice the price of diesel on the forecourt will shoot up the moment the price of oil goes up, even though it's what they bought at the old price.

It was 6Kn about a year ago. Remember, average income is about 5000Kn a month and fags cost 15Kn a packet, so comparitively it's really expensive.

just found this to depress us all :arrowd: :arrowd: :cry: :cry: :cry:
Motorists in the United States smarting from rising gasoline prices, take note: Mr. Taurisano pays the equivalent of $1.50 to fill his Hummer’s tank. Thanks to a decades-old subsidy that has proven devilishly complex to undo, gasoline in Venezuela costs about 7 cents a gallon compared with an average $2.86 a gallon in the United States.
