The Iranian government will set the gasoline price at 670 toumans per liter, or $2.40 per gallon, a 67 percent increase over the current prices. The new prices are expected to go into effect by next week.
The government will also set the price of subsidized gasoline to 400 toumans per liter, or $1.44 per gallon. This is a 400 percent increase over the current subsidized prices. There will be a cap of one car per family for this subsidy.
The government announced last week that Iran has become self-sufficient in gasoline production. But these dramatic price increases indicate that the self-sufficiency plan is primarily based on forcing lower demand for the expensive fuel.

Wow. If this actually takes place, it could provide the makings of a social shock.
In some ways, this is beginning to take on the life of Britain in 1939, during the so-called "phoney war" period. Let's hope the "Blitz" is not forthcoming.
