no economic down turn here

Louwai, if you want to look at who gets what out of the price of fuel at the bowser, it's the Government that gets the biggest slice. It's been a while, but I remember seeing a pie chart that showed the servo owner getting about 4-5 cents from each liter, the fuel company gets about 40-50 cents per liter, the rest goes to the govt in the form of a fuel tax!!!!!

I'm pretty much guessing the figures, but, I think they are in the ball park.

But all that tax goes to our fantastic roads .
