Fighting Gas Prices

GAS WAR - an idea that WILL work (lets go for it)!!!!



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.



Philip 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 at 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 people 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.
