Gas went up to 3.99 9/10 here in Alton, Illinois today. Across the river in St. Louis County (Missouri) it is $3.79 9/10
 
Illinois has been one of the highest in the nation thanks to our Governor and his gas tax structure.

In Kingston Ontario Canada we are up to $1.30 per litre - approx $4.94 US per gallon.

They say it is going up because of the weak US dollar.
 
So what are our friends in Europe paying for a litre of petro?
 
What about Japan?
 
And South America?
 
Is it just us (US) that is getting hosed?
