What would the average price of gas be…


If the dollar was at the same level as the Euro? Does anyone have a figure or know a link?

1. About 5/8
With the dollar equal to about 62 Eurocents, just multiply the current price by 5/8.

Ah yes, the good old days when the dollar was more valuable than the Euro....:eyes:

6. Thanks a lot guys from this
mathematically challenged truck driver. It will help explain on the CB to some of these (he,he,smirk ,smirk),dead enders on the road about the Chimp in Chefs role in the price they are paying for diesel fuel.

8. Do they think
That they got a fair deal with Oilman Bush and Oilman Cheney in office? Do they remember that it was under $1 a gallon while the Republicans were all atwitter with Monica Lewinsky?

2. What would it be if military costs were factored in?
Factor just the cost of the Carrier Group in the Gulf.

5. Take that, combine it with the devaluation of the dollar that Greenspan/Bernanke
have done to hide inflation and a multitude of financial shenanigans, throw in $.30 gal. of price gouging and you get $3.50 gal.

Real Mission Accomplished.

and what would it be if we didn't go into Iraq. In addition, what would the price of food be
if energy wasn't so high

We are paying for the consequences of people voting for bush

I think they have had enough of bush, and the continuation of his policies through mccain

If not, they can go f**K themselves, because that is what they are doing to the country

4. It was a buck and a half when the Chimp was appointed by the Supreme Court. Mission Accomplished.

7. What would it be if we built
30 - 50 new reactors and cut over to fuel cell technology? It would be irrelevant, along with the petro states.

I truly hope to see the day that happens.

9. well I was just traveling around with a group of Europeans and they were
saying they were paying a little under one Euro/liter. ($5.50/gal)

Just spent almost two weeks paying $2.58/gal in Mexico!
