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 $2.75 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 and DON"T purchase ANY gasoline from EXXON and MOBIL.
That's all.
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
I know I know, it's a chain letter. I thought it was a better sounding idea than the single day boycott
