No I live in England and pay my taxes. I don't buy the high taxes kills incentive arguement. A percentage of gross national product is collected as tax, so a higher collection from direct taxes would mean a lower percentage collected from indirect taxes, therefore the cost of fuel could be lowered if the tax collected from it needed only to be 50% as opposed to the present 75%. As to lower fuel prices being a good thing or not is another arguement.
It's all a matter of choices.
