          OK - so offtopic:
          I was in the automatic door business in the mid 80's and (during that time) got to know a guy in the mid '80s who had a manufacturing plant in Sweden.
          The two years previously his taxes had been more than his income.
          I know, I know, it had to do with "capital" - but he'd been pouring all he made into his factory (rather than spending on himself) for many years before that.
          Anyway. I got to know him while he was "scouting" various places in the US to move his factory to (yes, he moved it - and himself - US citizen now).
          Up to that point, I had never regarded the US as a "tax haven", but, I guess it is - at least to some... (Oh - and our roads are pretty decent, mostly.)

            Totally OT:

            Yes, but to think, what the world would be if USA was like Sweden.

                  Ok, so what do you pay in taxes?

                  Fuel in UK is at £0.80 for a litre, so over a dollar as well, ~$5 for a gallon.

                  VAT is 17.5%.

                    VAT in Norway is 24% (!!)

                    Not sure what the current fuleprice is, but it's probably more expensive than most other countries in the world.

                        Nice topic.
                        Atko: yep, but usually you have to pay that 25% VAT. If you can cheat it back is another cup of coffee, but the vaste majority of people cannot I think. Too bad that we don't have anything from M to talk about on hwsw...

                            Doesn't it specifically state that "Prices exclude VAT and delivery"?

                              On Shop MAtrox, yes. You pay "moms" or as we say in english tax when DHL deliver the package... Or when you pick it up...

                                DAMN!! And I was complaining about $1.73 a gallon.

                                At $5 a gallon, I think I would ride a Mountain Bike to work.
