You think gas prices are high here? Well it could be lower, much lower. According to CNN/Money these are the top five lowest countries. Most of the countries in the lower part of the list actually nationalize their oil industries. Meaning the government takes the oil in their land, and sells it back to their citizens instead of letting private companies jack up prices.
#5. Saudi Arabia
The very oil rich country sells gas at about $0.91 cents a gallon.
#4: Kuwait
The tiny country we helped during the Gulf War sells gas at $0.78 cents a gallon.
#3: Egypt
Egyptians might of had a lot to protest about recently, but I'm sure gas prices weren't one of the issues. They sell it at about $0.65 cents a gallon.
#2: Nigeria
The African country sells gas at about $0.38 cents a gallon.
#1: Venezuela
The Communist South American country sells gas at $0.12 cents a gallon.
