So really your 5.64 euros per gallon is the same as an American paying $3.66 which is not much higher than what people are paying now.

That's some f'ed up logic there, no matter how you spin it, gas in europe costs $8.80... and theorizing what if 100 euros were to equal 100 usd, is pretty flawed too, as the price of gas already takes that into account... if usd was stronger, then price of oil, and thus gas would be cheaper too...
