Dont Buy Gas Tomorrow!!!!!

[ShiftFMX]

I got this email today:

Don't Buy Gas On May 19th

IT HAS BEEN CALCULATED THAT IF EVERYONE IN THE UNITED STATES AND CANADA DID
NOT PURCHASE A DROP OF GASOLINE FOR ONE DAY AND ALL AT THE SAME TIME, THE
OIL COMPANIES WOULD CHOKE ON THEIR STOCKPILES.

AT THE SAME TIME IT WOULD HIT THE ENTIRE INDUSTRY WITH A NET LOSS OF OVER
4.6 BILLION DOLLARS WHICH AFFECTS THE BOTTOM LINES OF THE OIL COMPANIES.

THEREFORE MAY 19TH HAS BEEN FORMALLY DECLARED "STICK IT UP THEIR BEHIND "
DAY AND THE PEOPLE OF THIS NATION SHOULD NOT BUY A SINGLE DROP OF GASOLINE
THAT DAY.

THE ONLY WAY THIS CAN BE DONE IS IF YOU FORWARD THIS E-MAIL TO AS MANY
PEOPLE AS YOU CAN AND AS QUICKLY AS YOU CAN TO GET THE WORD OUT.

WAITING ON THIS ADMIINSTRATION TO STEP IN AND CONTROL THE PRICES IS NOT
GOING TO HAPPEN. WHAT HAPPENED TO THE REDUCTION AND CONTROL IN PRICES THAT
THE ARAB NATIONS PROMISED TWO WEEKS AGO?

REMEMBER ONE THING, NOT ONLY IS THE PRICE OF GASOLINE GOING UP BUT AT THE
SAME TIME AIRLINES ARE FORCED TO RAISE THEIR PRICES, TRUCKING COMPANIES ARE
FORCED TO RAISE THEIR PRICES WHICH EFFECTS PRICES ON EVERYTHING THAT IS
SHIPPED. THINGS LIKE FOOD, CLOTHING, BUILDING MATERIALS, MEDICAL
SUPPLIES ETC. WHO PAYS IN THE END? WE DO!

WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE. IF THEY DON'T GET THE MESSAGE AFTER ONE DAY, WE
WILL DO IT AGAIN AND AGAIN.

SO DO YOUR PART AND SPREAD THE WORD. FORWARD THIS EMAIL

Copy and paste this and forward it to everyone in ur address book. This Email has got around to a great amount of the country, lets see if we can get the gas prices to plummet!

No Flaming Please! :devil:

[RMX500]

people need to realize that almost everyone in the US and Canada with email or a forum has seen this so we all just need to do our part.

not taking part in this is as bad as voter apathy.

do you want john kerry throwing purple hearts on YOUR lawn?

[400EX_Kid_03]

I wont buy... unlike the other asholes who posted in here with nothing good or usefull to say...

[Pappy]

well, since China is the leading reason for higher crude oil prices lately ...i say dont buy chinese food:eek2:


for those that dont know, China has been buying oil at a record pace and this is the #1 reason crude prices are being driven upward.

[2001400ex]

I won't be buying any tommorrow...I purposely kept the car OUT of second gear so I would not have to fill up...1/4 tank left!:devil:

[ShiftFMX]

whatever kid....

I would like to personally tell you that I will be spending around $45 to fill up my truck...heck, I just might fill up my 5 gal tanks for my quad while I'm at it!

Whoever thought of this idea is an idiot and does not understand the system at all....and the people who follow are right there with him. Go back to economics 101.

if demand falls, supply would be in surplus, in order to create equilibrium they must lower prices (yea I got an A in Econ 101...)

[Chanman420q]

While you are right, you are also incredibly wrong. that policy you just mentioned works for everything under the sun, except for things that are essential, and things that have a monopoly. Think about it, if they raise gas to $15 a gallon, are you going to buy gas? Yes, you will. What else would you put in your car to fill up the gas tank, tang?

[BeltSlipper]

I love this stuff. I work in a refinery and make gasoline for a living. It's not the US oil companies causing this problem. It's the overseas countries like Pappy said. So don't think your going to chance the price by not purchasing gas for one day. The only thing will have is, I'm going to have to listen about "Everyone not buy gas on May 19th" in my morning meetings. And please don't do that do me. Those things are boring enough.

[RMX500]

maybe we should take Iraq's oil.

no ****, but we still cant do anything about prices. If it were to work, the united states would not only have to not buy gas today, but everyone would have to take off and stay home. Im gonna go fill up my car in a few mins....
