I got this from an e-mail on base and well this is what a lot of people are trying lol
>It has been calculated that if everyone in the United Staes 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 19 has been formally declared "Don't buy gas day" and the people of this nation should not buy a single drop of gas that day.
>
>The only way this can be done is if you forward this email to as many people as you can and quickly, to get the word out.
>
>Waiting for the government to do this won't work. 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 affects prices on everything that is shipped. Things like food, clothing, building materials, medical supllies, etc. And we are the ones who pay in the end!
>
>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 to everyone you know. Mark your calendars and make May 19th a day that the citizes of the U.S. say "Enough is enough."
