    For all the complaints about U.S. gasoline prices, Americans spent 63 percent less at the pump in July than Norwegians did on a gallon of the fuel.

    U.S. Gasoline a Bargain as Drivers Pay 63% Less Than Norway - Bloomberg

    The U.S. ranked 49th of 60 countries, according to data compiled by Bloomberg, with premium gasoline at $3.75 a gallon on July 23, compared with $10.12 in top-ranked Norway. The U.S. price was behind Japan, China and India, a country where people made 2.9 percent of what Americans earn.

      That's certainly good news, remember how anxious people were a few years ago. I used lists like that to junk peak oilers about $200/barrel. The prices going in Europe at the time were at that level.

      If fracking is what's bringing prices down that tech is going to be coming over shortly.

      In Norway, western Europe’s largest crude exporter, the cost of gasoline increased 4.4 percent in July from three months earlier, compared with the 11 percent decline in the U.S.
      And still the most expensive, something isn't right there.

      A strike over pensions by Norwegian energy workers reduced oil output by 15 percent and threatened to shut down production altogether before the government intervened. The strike, which lasted from June 24 to July 9, cost the government and companies $508 million, according to the Norwegian Oil Industry Association.

      Norwegians pay the most of any nationality to fill up their tanks. That's because instead of subsidizing fuel at the pump, the country uses its oil profits for services such as free college education and savings for infrastructure improvements.

      Resource-rich Norwegians absorb the high prices with relative ease. The average daily income is $272. The share of a day's wages needed to buy a gallon of gas is 3.7 percent.
      They won't be top of the list for long.

      The whole list is here

              Not exactly Sikh, but close enough to give you idea

              To make mistakes is human. To blame someone else for your mistake, is strategic.
