The price of "Régular" in your country

not to confuse the issue further, but what's the price before the taxes are added? Correct me if I'm wrong, but the reason for the higher price in Europe is due to the added taxes to fund mass transportation? When I've traveled in Europe, you can get just about anywhere by nice, clean, comfortable, RELIABLE light rail, and fast to boot. When have any of us in the US traveled by train! Other the the I-95 corridor on the east coast passenger rail is non-existant.
