okay, canadians and americans are the largest producers and consumers of oil products in the world. gas prices are currently around 1.05/litre here in calgary, and close to 3.00/gallon USD, which apparently subsidized by our gov’ts. our taxes and fuel taxes cover exploration charges for private companies to seek new sources of fuel and produce it for us.

here’s the rub, venezuela is selling fuel for 12 cents a gallon. 12 cents. what’s wrong with this picture?
