The main reason for the high domestic oil prices is high taxes. There is a reason why the country increases taxes on oil products. The first is to control the increase in automobiles. Relative to income, car prices are getting lower and lower, which is not suitable to control people's car purchases. Increased oil prices and increased car costs will affect people's purchase of cars to a certain extent. The second is to encourage people to use new energy vehicles. The third is for environmental protection. High oil prices will inevitably encourage people to save oil. Using less oil will reduce CO2 emissions. The fourth is to withdraw tax revenue and use it for the construction of key national projects and poverty alleviation. One of the important criteria for a poor household is that the family does not have a car, so increasing gas prices is also a way of "killing the rich and giving to the poor." Of course, high oil prices are also a double-edged sword. It will increase the production and transportation costs of various commodities in society, and cause price increases.
There are also differences in currency value fluctuations and policy directions! First of all, the two yuan per liter back then and the eight yuan per liter now are mainly caused by a certain amount of inflation. The current value of two yuan and the current value of two yuan can no longer be equated. The U.S. dollar has always been relatively stable, and it has been rising steadily this year. This is also the reason why the current price is two yuan and the current price is eight yuan! The second reason is the policy direction. At present, China is vigorously developing new energy vehicles. After all, this is a big market direction, which requires a certain normal tilt, which will indirectly cause high oil prices!
Mainly, domestic fuel oil cannot be self-sufficient, and a large amount comes from imports. Not to mention the cumbersome import process, layers of peeling have raised the purchase price. As the trading volume of my country's RMB crude oil futures continues to expand, China It has begun to have a certain influence on the pricing power of crude oil. As this influence expands, the price of crude oil we can obtain will gradually decrease in the future. In a relatively long period of time, the nominal price may be relatively stable, but considering the currency Inflated, real prices are likely to be lower in the long run.
If a large oil field is found in domestic surveys, and domestic fuel can be produced and used up, and can be sold to other countries, the price of oil will be the same as water. You can burn it as much as you want, but the prerequisite is to find the oil field!
