Exactly. There's no doubt about it.
For example: Only after _very strong_ protests, were the prices of new
cars sold in this country, eventually reduced to bring them more in
line with those of other countries.

There are another load of games there. In some EU countries (I
believe Finland and Denmark are notable), taxes on car sales are so
high that manufacturers have been forced into low net pricing in order
to sell....
