Stand United Against the rising Gas Prices!

Subject: A different approach to tackle the Gas Prices

This is worth the read:

Stand United - Join the resistance!!!!

We are going to hit close to $4.00 a gallon by this summer and it might go higher!! Want gasoline prices to come down? Take some intelligent, united action.

Here's the idea:

Phase I: Beginning now DON'T purchase ANY gasoline from EXXON and MOBIL AND CITGO. This includes "no-name" gas stations that may be purchasing fuels from these companies. You are encouraged to still stop at the convenience stores that you normally purchase convenience items from. Remember the owners of these places do not control the price of gas, so don't destroy their livelihood.  If the oil companies 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 gas buyers.

Phase II: If the prices have not dropped by April 15th: Continue the boycott against Phase I companies and immediately include your boycott against SHELL and SUNOCO stations.

Phase III: If the prices have not dropped by May 1st: Continue the boycott against Phase I and II companies and immediately include your boycott against AMOCO, BP and CHEVRON.

Phase IV: If the prices have not dropped by May 15th: Continue Phase I-III and cut back consumption. By this it means if you normally spend $60 to fill up your tank, Spend only $59.90. Ten cents can add up to a lot when multiplied by millions of consumers. Also check around your place of work to see if you can telecommute a couple of times a month or if you can carpool with someone.

It's really simple to do! Now, don't quit at this point.... keep reading and I'll explain how simple it is to reach millions of people.

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.

 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.


Please forward to as many people as possible. Getting the word out will let us act together and make a difference. If this makes sense to you, please sign and pass this message on...
We the undersigned stand united against the rising oil prices that you are imposing on us. Many people cannot afford to pay other bills, and cannot afford to spend monies elsewhere, which is ultimately destorying our places of work and entertainment and affecting people's liveliehood. We ask that you consider taking lower bonuses, stock options, and wages and consider lowering your operating costs to help those who purchase your product. Remeber the old phrase in business that the customer is always right and we are not going to take anymore until you have adjusted your prices appropriately.
