ORONO, Maine - If you stick to the news in the usa, you're in for some time summer and spring. The rising price of gasoline in the pump would be the focus of extensive coverage, analyzing causes, parsing political arguments over blame and solutions,[url=http://parajumpersoutletjackets.webmium.com/][b]parajumpers vest outlet[/b][/url], and telling stories of how Americans are dealing with it.
It is hard to avoid gas price lamentations over time magazine, The Wall Street Journal, and my local daily paper. American complaints about gas price is as natural because the return from the robin's song. The fact is that even as gas approaches $4 a gallon, Americans have little to whine about. To be sure, $4 a gallon is more painful than $3, but in a global sense, what Americans pay at the pump is a bargain.
In middle-income Turkey, for example, a gallon of gas costs upwards of $10. Impoverished Eritreans pay about the same. A friend of mine in Tel Aviv informs me a gallon there fetches about $8. A gallon of petrol in the United Kingdom was up around $8.40 a gallon in March,[url=http://woolrichdeutschlandarcticparka.albirank.net/][b]woolrich deutschland women online shop[/b][/url], an all-time high.
High gas prices have persisted for a long time far away. Americans have been familiar with reduced prices, making the current spike a rarity and the cause of coverage and complaints.
Several years ago,[url=http://peutereyjacketsuppliers.webmium.com/][b]Peuterey Jacket[/b][/b][/url], we paid about $4 a gallon to fill our rental car inCyprus. The high price at the pump, the prevalence of narrow roads along with a modest national income level have persuaded Cypriot drivers to shun SUVs; our rental car was barely large enough for each of us and the stick shift.
Americans can look longingly to Qatar,[url=http://woolrichdeutschlandarcticparka.albirank.net/][b]Woolrich Parka Günstig outlet[/b][/url], a rustic awash in energy wealth in which a gallon of gas costs about a buck. Or consider Venezuela,[url=http://parajumpersoutletjackets.webmium.com/][b]http://parajumpersoutletjackets.webmium.com/[/b][/url], where oil is made by a government-owned company and President Hugo Chavez keeps local gasoline prices around 12 cents a gallon like a benefit to the nation citizens.
A different way to think about gas prices is as an evaluation to income. On that scale, Americans are becoming a real bargain. In Cairo, where gas is $1.20, an incredible number of Egyptians survive a few bucks each day.
Another factor in understanding gasoline costs is the choices Americans make about their personal transportation. SUVs,[url=http://parajumpersoutletjackets.webmium.com/][b]parajumpers jackets[/b][/url], multi-family cars, the long commute from suburb to city, the possible lack of greater investment in public transportation are factors which make getting around expensive, whether gas is $3 or $4 a gallon. The choices our public officials make to invest more in highways than subways reinforce the American a feeling of entitlement the open road belongs to them. Budapest and Cairo, although not Miami or Houston, have functioning subway networks.
The American car culture limits my very own choices. In rural Maine, where we live, public transportation is not widely available. We share a car. She drives several miles to her job and that i walk to mine. Like other Americans, many of our neighbors carpool, bike, walk or, when there is a bus route nearby,[url=http://duveticadoudoune.halod.com/][b]Doudoune Duvetica[/b][/url], they're going this way.
The rising cost of gas is really a seductive subject for journalists. It's an economic story,[url=http://peutereyjacketsuppliers.webmium.com/][b]Peuterey Jacket outlet[/b][/url], a political story, a worldwide story, a war story, an overseas policy story, a point-the-finger story,[url=http://peutereyjacketsuppliers.webmium.com/][b]Peuterey Jacket men[/b][/url], an individual story.
Some perspective is in order. gas prices climb another 12 cents in two weeks
Latest jump represents higher crude oil prices, although analysts say the rate of increase is slowing
