The Iraqs are upset that fuel prices are going up in Iraq! Maybe we should take a lesson from them and demonstrate in the streets because of our gas prices. Link below; my emphasis.
"Violent demonstrations broke out across Iraq and the oil minister threatened to resign Monday after the government raised the prices of gasoline and cooking fuel by up to nine times."
"The price of a liter of imported and super gasoline was raised to 17 cents, which is a fivefold increase from previous prices. There are about 3.8 liters in a gallon, meaning the new price is about 65 cents a gallon."
