Question

Who can tell me how to or what will bring fuel prices down for Australians??

Answer 1

Stronger US Dollar.

Less specualtion.

Nothing else, it is a worldwide price increase.

Governments should interfere.

Answer 2

More than one third of the price we pay at the pump is made up of federal taxes.  Add State taxes and the percentage is nearer to 40%.  In NSW this includes the'3 x 3' levy, which should have stopped a long time ago.  Kevin Rudd should consider a reduction in fuel excise.  Whether oil prices go up or down, a deduction in excise would help.  The higher the price of fuel, the more GST...the Government can't affect the world price of oil, but it can moderate excise and GST.  The Government need to stop shifting the blame to everyone else.

Answer 3

Nothing.  You're part of the world market.  However, you might nationalize the little oil you do have and sell it to yourselves cheaply.

Of course, if you were to do that America might threaten an invasion!

Answer 4

Sorry I have no answer.

They will only go higher.

Answer 5

Find some small country with oil reserves near Indonesia.  Encourage the Indonesians to annexe it, then recognise the state that results. Take lots of oil contracts in exchange.

Discovering vast oilfields in the outback.
