The Saudi's said some years ago...."don't blame us for the high price of fuel, blame your own governments".
They're right, the biggest impost on fuel is taxation.
Maybe KRUDD will fix it, but I wouldn't bet on it.

Hi All
I filled up this morning, (Petrol) in the work vehicle, at a recently
new Servo near where we live, its owned by some Indian mob,
on the Price Signs near
the entrance it showed Unleaded Petrol
95 octane at 148.9 per litre, I didnt take any notice of the price
on the pump, when I paid for it I looked at the docket and it
showed 155.9 cents per litre, because I was in a hurry to get to
the job site, I didnt go back to question the price,
Anyway, on the way home tonight I noticed the price was still
advertised at 148.9 per litre, when I got home I phoned them and
enquired about the pump price, the female said I dont speak good
English and I am to busy to talk, and hung up in my ear,
anyway tomorrow I will call the appropriate people and dob them in.
Cheers
Daza

91 RON is 148.9 cpl at the moment in (south)
brisbane, with PULP 155.9 cpl.....you sure you didnt get the premium juice for the work beast. :-)
Nice to see the prices on the Northside of
Brisbane are up to 10-14 cpl cheaper. :-(

Sucks, but like a mate was saying the other day, price is related directly to how much we use, and unfortunately "we" isn't just australia, pretty sure chinas fuel is subsidised also to about 60c/litre, that means they use a heap and that drives up the price in an effort to slow down consumption, and australia being unsubsidised has to pay a fair bit - although not as much as europe.
