About those US gas prices...


When I left here in summer 2005 I was paying about $2.50 to fill up my 70 liter 1982 Toyota Landcruiser.  It now costs $4.00 a gallon.  Taxis and other cars line up for hours to get gas.  When I was here before this post-conflict inflation doubled the price of some items each week (the cost of the school building went from $250,000 to over 1.5 million in just a year).  This country, even the stable regions, are going through significant transition.
