That sucks. I'm seriously considering moving I dont know if anyone else has noticed but Australia has become unbelievably expensive to live in, even moreso than america.
Ridiculous fuel prices, Ridiculous Interest rates, Ridiculous food prices.
I've been considering moving to New York for a while and I think when fuel prices become to much I'm going to do it.
Its not like the government will do anything about it, they are useless as.

Lol welcome to life in a booming economy.

Edit: It's not up to government to subsidise your fuel, and their fuel taxes help you at the end of the day, so ride a bike or catch public transport.

stupid speculation: I'm sure we can expect to pay 10 bucks a litre one day too its just a question of when. Fuel prices are no big deal and hardly worth talking about, there is always the bus.

Don't like the fuel prices? Sell the performance car and buy a Toyota smart car, KRUDD will love you for it.
