yeah but Pip, what's your minimum wage there? 4.85 gbp/hour? that equals about 8.76 US dollars per hour... right? i just did the math, and you filling up for 40 pounds (72 american dollars) compared to your minimum wage, is exactly the same as me spending $42 for my tank of gas with our minimum wage at $5.15/hour. your gas tank costs 8.22 hours worked for a minimum wage worker... and my gas tank costs 8.16 hours of work for a minimum wage worker. my point is that you guys may pay more than we do, but you also make more money than we do. but it equals out, so we all have the same right to bitch and moan as the next person.
