I urge all of you to do this...It definitely is the way to hurt the monopoly of the united
Companies. It's time we unite! Dave

>>GAS WAR - an idea that WILL work
>>
>>This was originally sent by a retired Coca Cola
>>executive It came from one of his engineer buddies
>>who retired from Halliburton. It's worth your
>>consideration.
>>
>>Join the resistance!!!! I hear we are going to
>>hit
>>close to $ 4.00 a gallon by next summer and it might
>>go higher!! 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 on and join with us!
>>
>>By now you're probably thinking gasoline priced at
>>about $1.50 is super cheap. Me too! It is currently
>>$2.79 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 wimp
>>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 30 people. If each of us
>>send it to a! t 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 group 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!
>>(If you don't understand how we can reach 300 million
>>and all you have to do is send this to 10 people....
>>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? If each of us sends
>>this
>>e-mail out to ten more peop! le 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. I suggest that we not buy from EXXON/MOBIL UNTIL
>>THEY LOWER THEIR PRICES TO THE $1.30 RANGE AND KEEP
>>THEM DOWN. THIS CAN REALLY WORK.
>>

I'd have to say it's probably a combination of stupidity and gullibility.

And if you send me five dollars and everyone that you contact sends you five dollars and everyone that they contact sends them five dollars, we will all be rich!

Jesus H. Fucking Christ this is stupid.

Serinity now!
