http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2012-08-30/italians-squeezed-by-9-50-a-gallon-gas-face-costly-drive-home.html

     Momma mia!
     You've got to be as rich as Silvio Berlusconi to go for a long drive in a big car in Italy today.
     Or...switch to riding a Vespa!
    Because of PM 'Super' Mario Monti's new taxes...gasoline hit the equivalent of $9.50 per gallon in some areas of the trendy tourists' favorite...Tuscany.
    Reportedly...Italians now spend more weekly feeding their cars...than they do feeding their families.
