The other day I got an email that made me realize we as a nation are doing nothing about the prices of gas these days. Well I'm here to tell everyone, there is hope. If every one who reads this does this, the gasses prices have a good chance of going down. The two largest gas chains are Mobil and Exxon. Now if everyone were to stop buying gas from these companies, it would force them to lower their gas prices. Doing so would force their competitors to  lower their prices also. Thus, we have cheaper gas. The government isn't doing much to get the prices down, but with this idea, we can take action to get them lowered ourselves. After you read this, TELL EVERYONE YOU KNOW!!! The more people who know the better.

Mobile and Exxon are American based companies . Why not pick other companies that are not , such as Citgo ? The idea would probably work short term , but at least do a little research on who to pick first . BTW , I got the same e-mail .

Regardless what gas stations we choose, we the consumers need to do something. Fooch, you are right...the government and oil tycoons are not going to help us. It is time that the general public as a whole figure out how we can take back our money.
Do we set certain days where nobody purchases gas? Do we only purchase gas from American companies? What? There are some very intelligent people here who can offer some suggestions.

If you do that gas stations will run out of gas and in return people would go to exon mobil!

Well of course we can lower gas prices, they do it with food all the time a half gallon of ice cream is now a quart and a half/ So lets just do the same with gas lets sell it by the half gallon it will cut the price per unit by half and collect more taxes at the same time.

Although Mobile an BP are American Companies, they are probably the biggest source of our gas and are making billions in profit. They dont seem to care that they are killing us, all they care about it swimming in their millions. I say dont buy gas period. I dont leave my house anymore unless absolutely necessary!

Lets get rid of the taxes, oil co.s only make 8 cents on the gallion. Drill for our own right now, build new refineries now giving Mich workers a job,get rid of KK and Jenny from the block, quit voting in Dems. they relly are Libs. There- all the problems solved.

Perhaps we should go back to the horse and buggy days....at least the horses will cut the grass and fertilize the lawn too.
