We heard today from a man who is very savvy about the economy, namely,
Clark Howard, and he says that the gas prices are going to start going up
again and will be high this summer-$2.00 and up. We need to do whatever we
can, and do it NOW!
This makes more sense than the don't buy gas on a certain day routine that
was going around last year re: Gasoline Prices. Whoever started this has a
good point. By now, you're probably thinking gasoline priced at about
$1.49 is cheap. Me too, as it is now $1.58 for regular unleaded!
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 less than $1.50, we need
to try an aggressive response. 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 don't buy it. But, (as the gas
companies
know full well, and are counting on), that's not really a practical option
since we all have come to rely on our cars. But we CAN have an impact on
gas prices if we all act together.
Here's the idea: For the rest of this year, don't purchase gasoline
from the two biggest companies (which now are one), namely EXXON and MOBIL.
You see, if they are not selling, they should be incline (i.e., "forced",
to reduce their prices. And, because of their size, and hence market
share, if they reduce their prices the other companies will too. (They
would HAVE no choice!). Isn't that a "juicy" prospect? But to have an
impact, we need to reach literally millions of users. But it's doable!
The original message was sent to 42 people and I don't know how many
more were included before I got it. If each of you send it to at least 10
more ... and those 10 send it to at least 10 more and so on, by the time
the message reaches the sixth iteration, we will have reached over one
million consumers. Acting together we can make a difference. If this
makes sense to you, please pass this message on, or one you compose, to at
least 10 more E-mail addresses. PLEASE HOLD OUT UNTIL THEY LOWER THEIR
PRICES TO BELOW
$1.28 -- $1.29 AND KEEP THEM DOWN. THIS CAN REALLY WORK!
