Hi all.
Although this isn't to acknolwedge the places where they sell gas cheap but to acknolwedge a way (a possible way) to make those big gasoline companies reduce the price of gas.
As we all agree, gas prices has skyrocketed recently and consumers therefore have less and less spendable money, which can hurt the economy as a whole. So here is how we can make those bastards (gasoline companies) learn that we, consumers control the price not them.
(moderators) i am not sure if this is allowed here. if not, feel free to move to it another forum. Thanks.
As a consumer, I'm pretty tired of paying "the big bucks" for gas;
please
read the following all the way to the end - it makes sense, and it may
just work....
Lower the Price of Gas- Create a Gas Price War!
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 - here's how.....
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 wimp 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 sendit 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 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.
