Originally posted by Tinkerboater Something to think about seriously--are we going to let the gas companys get away with it again??? This was E-MAILED to me. 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 united, intelligent 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 year. 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. (California). 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, starting as soon after April 1st as possible, 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 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 them send it to 10 more (30 x 10 = 300) and those 300 send it to at 10 more (300 x 10= 3,000) ... and so on, by the time this message reaches the sixth generation of people, we will have reached over 3 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 only one level further, you guessed it.....THREE HUNDRED MILLION PEOPLE!!!. All you have to do is send this to ten 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, there it is, in black and white, 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 MI LLION people could conceivably be contacted within the next 8 days. I'll bet you 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 GIVE IT A TRY UNTIL THEY LOWER THEIR PRICES AND KEEP THEM DOWN. THIS CAN REALLY WORK IF WE DON'T DELETE THIS AND KEEP IT GOING. DO IT NOW, WHILE IT IS IN FRONT OF YOU. WE HAVE NOTHING TO LOSE AND WE'VE EVERYTHING TO GAIN AND START IT YOURSELF WITH YOUR NEXT FILL-UP. THIS IS A GOOD IDEA everyone knows that oil company's always follow each others prices! how do we spread this around the |

Sorry to bust your bubble guys but if you think that this in anyway is gonna make ExxonMobil back down on there prices you are in for one rude awakening....... Gasoline is the smallest part of the company with one of the least profits of all.

Slow poke, this whole thead is a visceral response thing. Don't go and spoil it by injecting rational thought into the process.:D :D
