You're gonna love this. We (Australia) give a bunch of gas away (no royalties), barely tax the companies on their profits, and then most of it gets shipped overseas so it's expensive here.
We're a third-world country in disguise.
(Gas is dumb and should stay in the ground, but it's even more stupid for us not to get any revenue from it)
