Most people in Somalia can't afford .50 /gallon gas. Percentage cost of income compared to other "mandatory" costs such as food, housing, and healthcare is more meaningful. Also, as the only large industrialized nation withou a meaningful public transportation infrastructure gasoline purchase is for all intents and purposes a mandatory expenditure here.
