You don't see it in the picture but that que expands onto the road.

Takes longer than charging an electric vehicle 😎

"Free markets" lol 🤣

Today? Absolutely. That que was at least 50m long on the main road.

Why are the gas stations so small. Only 4 pumps?

What billions?

"Germany temporarily cut fuel taxes for May and June 2026, providing around €1.6 billion in relief (≈17¢/L). The government warned oil companies not to absorb the tax cut as profit, but Germany's Federal Cartel Office later said most of the discount did not reach consumers"

What did they expect? 🤣

It's one of those no-brand stations next to a large supermarket. I think they're always a couple of cents cheaper than Esso and co.

Ah ok

Ah so not paid, just not taken. I'd guess shareholders will allocate that capital better. In fact, possibly positive right. Government has less to spend on trying to start unnecessary war with Russia, fuel prices might go up enough to annoy population sufficiently to start demaing change and shareholders get a nice dividend! 🙄

Not paid but also not collected and certainly not forwarded to the consumer as expected. That's the reason why the Government didn't extend this into July (allegedly).

Makes you wonder if the people who created this happen to also own shares in said corporations.

There's a doorway in every policy related building in governments. When you walk through, you temporarily forget the meaning of the word incentive. A friend who used to work in policy in uk govt got driven round the bend and eventually quit because years of trying to think of the effects of a policy got worked around by people within a week of implementation. He never could grasp that the reason is most people don't want to be harassed by government
