Gas Prices

I hear we are going to hit close to $3.00 a gallon
by the
summer. Want gasoline prices to come down? We
need
to take some intelligent, united action. Phillip
Hollsworth,
offered this good idea: This makes MUCH MORE SENSE
than the "don't buy gas on a certain day" campaign
that
was going around last April or May! The oil
companies just
laughed at that because they knew we wouldn't
continue
to "hurt" ourselves by refusing to buy gas. It
was more of
an inconvenience to us than it was a problem for
them.
BUT, whoever thought of this idea, has come up
with a
plan that can really work. Please read it and
join with us!

By now you're probably thinking gasoline priced at
about
$1.50 is super cheap. Me too! It is currently
$1.97 for
regular unleaded in my town.
Now that the oil companies and the OPEC nations
have
conditioned us to think that the cost of a gallon
of gas is
CHEAP at $1.50- $1.75, we need to take aggressive
action to teach them that BUYERS control the
marketplace....not sellers. With the price of
gasoline going
up more each day, we consumers need to take
action.
The only way we are going to see the price of gas
come
down is if we hit someone in the pocketbook by not
purchasing their gas! And we can do that WITHOUT
hurting ourselves. How? Since we all rely on our
cars,
we can't just stop buying gas. But we CAN have an
impact on gas prices if we all act together to
force a
price war.

Here's the idea: For the rest of this year, DON'T
purchase ANY gasoline from the two biggest
companies
(which now are one), EXXON and MOBIL. If they are not
selling any gas, they will be inclined to reduce
their
prices. If they reduce their prices, the other
companies
will have to follow suit. But to have an impact,
we need
to reach literally millions of Exxon and Mobil gas
buyers.
It's really simple to do!! Now, don't whimp out
on me at
this point...keep reading and I'll explain how
simple it is
to reach millions of people!!
I am sending this note to about thirty people. If
each of
you send it to at least ten more (30 x 10 = 300)
... and
those 300 send it to at least ten more (300 x 10 =
3,000)...
and so on, by the time the message reaches the
sixth
generation of people, we will have reached over
THREE
MILLION consumers! If those three million get
excited
and pass this on to ten friends each, then 30
million
people will have been contacted! If it goes one level further, you guessed it..... THREE HUNDRED MILLION PEOPLE!!! Again, all You have to do is send this to 10 people. That's all. (If you don't understand how we can reach 300 million and all you have to do is
send
this to 10 people.... Well, let's face it, you
just aren't a
mathematician. But I am ... so trust me on this
one.)
How long would all that take? If each of us sends
this
email out to ten more people within one day of
receipt,
all 300 MILLION people could conceivably be
contacted
within the next 8 days!!! I'll bet you I didn't
think you
and I had that much potential, did you! Acting
together
we can make a difference. If this makes sense to
you,
please pass this message on. PLEASE HOLD OUT UNTIL
THEY LOWER THEIR PRICES TO THE $1.30 RANGE AND
KEEP THEM DOWN. THIS CAN REALLY WORK.

i posted here cause more people look here than anywhere else it seems

man, i don't know what part of the country you live in, but here in Phoenix, i've seen 1.21 1.31 1.41 and it is 1.19 about a mile away from me. and these prices are consistant for the most part... i guess we just have less expensive gas here
