Reading harold_maude's journal

Well in Italy gas is a little over 4 euros per gallon, and the governement is about to pass a law (well it's not called law exactly, but I don't know the technical term) in order to decrease the price.

Fortunately for us, here there is no competition between gas sellers, and so the price is basically the same everywhere; I think it varies of a few cents on the autobahns though, where it costs a little less than in the city. The governement CAN decide to lower the price of gas, and the petrol companies that sell in Italy have to respect that. This is the reason why we aren't as worried I think; we know that it can't go higher than this. And right now it is 1.17 for unleaded gasoline.

Also another interesting thing... here diesel costs less than gasoline. I know that in the States is viceversa, but what about in the other parts of Europe? Does gasoline costs more or less than diesel?
