You don't know your born over there. We're currently paying about $9.75 a gallon, which is insane, but what real alternative do we have?

The problem here is that about 75-80% of that is tax. There is a fuel duty tax and then we have to pay purchase tax on top of that, so even our tax is being taxed

If I didn't run a business here, I'm pretty certain I would leave.

Move to Venezuela where gas is about $0.12 a gallon.
