95 octane 1€409

We all face the situation were the energy prices that the public pay have in some cases gone beyond any reasonable reason...as a example i will use PORTUGAL ...

PORTUGAL situated next to SPAIN... has all the BAD economic examples that should not be followed by any government.
PORTUGAL is in the top five nations with the highest petrol prices. ( 95 octane 1€409)
PORTUGAL there are Taxes for everything, we pay Tax on Tax...
PORTUGAL the politicians ,banks and most companies are corrupt...
PORTUGAL unemployment is one of the highest in Europe...
PORTUGAL social and medical care are one of the worst in Europe...

But one of the worst situations is the fact that the final petrol price paid at the pump (gas station) keeps changing on a upward movement every week without any warning or explanation.
Consumer goods including bread have increased up to 30%..this year alone... so if you thinking of visiting Portugal...you are welcome... but bring along a bicycle...any other means of travel is too expensive, but if you must use a car then avoid the petrol stations such as Galp,BP,Repsol, these companies all practice same inflated petrol prices..

The oil companies have been requested to reply as to why we have such inflated petrol prices but the only reply we obtain is SILENCE.
The international crude situation is quite dramatic with all the regional conflicts and SPECULATION playing a major part...so we don't need a inflationary government ..what we need is cheaper petrol prices...
