Gasoline prices in US$/(US)gallon terms around the world: we're looking at the US at US$4.06 at the pump, 30% lower than the simple average of the 67 countries listed at US$5.74. (

That ranks the US at the
22nd cheapest in the world, cheaper than every country in Asia barring Pakistan and most of the the O&G producers (Malaysia, China, Indonesia and Brunei) and
every single country in Europe including the o&g producers such as the UK, at 58th, and Norway - at 66th only cheaper than dysfunctional outlier Sierra Leone.
Only 9 countries are priced within 10% of the average, while
seven countries are
still priced at
under a buck a gallon - half to keep their populations happy, half just to p1ss off the Americans.
