To think that it goes 4 fold is just ridiculous assumption based on paranoia 
According to this logic you should advocate selling gas by tons, if 1 liter goes up by 1 cent, 1 ton also goes up by only 1 cent  |
For easy math, let's say prices would go up ten cents per gallon back in the day.
Now they commonly go up 10-cents per litre (there are 3.79 litres to an imperial gallon).
Do the math - that's a 37.9 cent
increase per gallon.
People don't stop to comprehend that a 10-cent increase (per litre) is a far greater increase per gallon than prior to the metric conversion in 1981.
