The gas price revolution!
Advertisements [?]
Got this in e-mail. Thought I'd share.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Gasoline costs 15 cents a gallon in Kuwait.....

Do you like the price of gasoline you are paying?

If not, join the resistance, because consumers have power!!!



Join the resistance!!!!

I hear we are going to hit close to $3.00 a gallon by the summer.




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.



BUT, whoever thought of this idea, has come up with a plan that can
really work.



Please read it and join with us!

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,



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!



If we all act together to "force a price war" .



"(which now are one), EXXON and MOBIL!!!!!!!!"


If they reduce their prices, the other companies will have to follow suit.


Buy your gas at: Hess, Sunnoco, Citgo, Conoco, Sinclair, or
Bp/Phillips -- they don't get their gas from the middle east.

But to have an impact, we need to reach literally millions of Exxon
and Mobil gas buyers.

simple it is to reach millions of people!!

I am sending this note to about thirty people.
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. That's all.


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?
