Tax Collectors Union

European Governments often feel that their neighbours should be forced to be a grabbing and venal as they are. In response to high oil prices, one measure to ease consumer’s pain is to decrease taxes........

Poland has already cut fuel taxes, to the irritation of some EU countries.

.........Just don’t tell anyone else. PS. The European approach to oil products is that they are harmful for the environment and should therefore be heavily taxed. High crude oil prices on the other hand are just a drag on the world economy. Self Interested? You bet. All they care about is their tax collections.
