Gasoline in the U.S. is subject to both federal and state taxes. Federal taxes include excise taxes of 18.3 cents per gallon on gasoline and 24.3 cents per gallon on diesel fuel, plus a "leaking underground storage tank" fee of 0.1 cents per gallon on both fuels.
In the US, gas taxes have always been shockingly low. The federal gas tax (an excise tax levied during the production process) was first charged in 1932 at 1 cent per gallon and is now 18.4 cents per gallon — an increase which tracks close to inflation. But the federal gas tax hasn't gone up since 1993.

Why the No. 1 oil country is producing less oil. Even before the invasion, prices of oil and gasoline were rising as the world gradually recovered from the Covid pandemic. For a brief moment in 2020, the cost of a barrel of oil fell below zero because storage tanks were full from the lack of demand.

High demand for crude oil and low supply pushed gas prices upward this year. And though the Federal Reserve has raised interest rates three times so far in 2022—and is planning on more raises in the near future to nudge prices down—there are other factors at play internationally.
The top five source countries of U.S. gross petroleum imports in 2021 were Canada, Mexico, Russia, Saudi Arabia, and Colombia.
Where The U.S. Gets Its Oil. America is one of the world's largest oil producers, and close to 40 percent of U.S. oil needs are met at home. Most of the imports currently come from five countries: Canada, Saudi Arabia, Mexico, Venezuela and Nigeria.
How do gas stations know to change prices?
The U.S. EIA website states: "Gasoline prices can change rapidly if something disrupts crude oil supplies, refinery operations, or gasoline pipeline deliveries. Even when crude oil prices are stable, gasoline prices fluctuate because of seasonal changes in demand and in gasoline specifications."
Data as of June 30, 2022. Western and Pacific states face the most costly gas in the nation, as the five states with the highest prices are California, Hawaii ($5.60), Alaska ($5.57), Nevada ($5.57) and Oregon ($5.49).
No, not anytime soon. Estimates vary, but the U.S. Energy Information Administration's Annual Energy Outlook 2021 said as of January 1, 2019, there was about 2,867 Tcf of technically recoverable resources of dry gas in the United States.

That's because Saudi Arabia has the second-largest oil reserves in the world — and the U.S. has made it clear it wants all the Persian Gulf's oil states to boost their output. The conventional wisdom is that more oil produced means cheaper gas at the pump.
Venezuela is the world's cheapest country to buy petrol, where amazingly it costs just 2 pence (GBP) a litre. This is because it's home to some of the biggest oil reserves in the world. But it's also a country where income is very low too.
