Fuel taxes & gov't.
SMolteberg -
Hope everybody read your last post carefully -
EIGHTY percent [80%]
of the price of fuel in Norway is TAX !!
Yeoww!
So let's see - that $5. (+) a gallon you're whining about
really only costs one dollar ($1. ) [BEFORE Taxes!]
Think the gov't in NORWAY has their hand/s in your
shorts - BIG TIME !
Make that - - BOTH hands - and BOTH feet!
Sounds like the "why" our forefathers had that "Tea Party"!
As I assume you know, in the US fuel prices vary from
State to State. Federal tax -AND State tax.
[Other factors also]
So you see a fairly wide range of prices.
But, a lot of politicians (here) would be out of a job in
very short order with 80% tax on a gallon of fuel !!
So - fill us in on other taxes in Norway. Sales tax?
Property tax?
