Gas Prices -- Help at last?

The answer is: There aren't any. The closest you've come is diesel,

taxed it as much.

Diesel's been around for over 100 years. And the only reason most European
governments keep the taxes low on it is that it's the primary heating fuel. Tax
diesel, and lots of people would start pumping their heating oil into their cars.

Drink is the curse of the land. It makes you quarrel with your neighbor.
It makes you shoot at your landlord. And it makes you miss him.

taxation for heating oil is different than for car diesel. and it is not
allowed to use heating oil in your car (special colored stuff, can be
traced)
