who is paying $7/gallon for gas?

In the UK, people pay approx $6 per gallon for gasoline.

If you change that chart to USD and Gallons you'll find this around the cost of gasoline in New Zealand.

For comparison, in Sydney, Australia, as of this morning, basic unleaded 91 octane fuel is about AUD 1.35 / litre at best. Which is USD 0.94 at today's exchange rate. Just under USD 4 / US gallon.

Of that, AUD 0.41 is federal fuel excise, and AUD 0.12 is GST.

Don't forget that UK Gallons are not the same as US Gallons 1 Imperial Gallon = 1.2 US Gallons
