( In the US, consumers have been near apoplectic as petrol (or gasoline) prices have hit the unheard of heights of $3 a gallon. That's the equivalent of roughly 40p a litre.
In the UK, we're now pretty much used to paying more than £1 a litre. That's the kind of level that would cause a revolution in the States. Here we just cough up and wince and console ourselves that at least it's still cheaper than bottled water.) Quote from msn money uk using this it works at about
$7.50 u.s. a gallon

Now tell me you believe that Exxon posted all the profit they made.  I envy your faith if you think that was anything but the very minimum of what they could not bury.
They are sticking it in our ass and they are sticking it up the rest of the world even deeper BECAUSE THEY CAN.
