Although I am afraid the omner of this list won't like the development of 
this thread what is the price of fuel or the cost for medical care to those 
who do not have money to buy food?

that, pluss a hefty 20% sales tax is my contribution.  + +

    52% here..  Sales tax is 19%  I'll spare you the taxes on things like petrol

  On the other hand, we Americans have a lot of folk who can not afford medical 
care, who don't get to eat regularly - or well - although we do have the 
scratch to wage wars.
