I posted this article on this site in April of 2008. With gas prices climbing I think y'all might be more open to the strategy. This will be part of my platform in my independent run for Congress. We can make gasoline prices go way down just by consuming intelligently. YOU READY?? Read and implement. I am unbought, unbossed, and unafraid to take on the big oil companies. We are going to win this race!! Victory is at hand!! YOU READY??

HOW TO LOWER HIGH GAS PRICES

The principles of economics are pretty simple. More demand will get you a higher price. Less demand will get you a lower price. By using this simple rule, and working together we can bring down the price of gasoline. Here’s how:

PLAY THE SHELL GAME!!!

STRATEGY : Play the Shell Game. If we make a specific oil company’s gasoline inventory increase then the laws of economics says that Oil Company will lower its gasoline prices. We can increase an oil company’s gasoline inventory by not buying gas from that particular company. To play the Shell Game we do not buy any gasoline from Shell. Shell’s inventory goes up, its prices come down. When Shell’s prices come down, now we give all our business to shell. That means the other oil companies inventory will increase and their prices will come down. However, we do not go buy their gasoline until the price is considerably lower than Shell’s price. Then we start buying from everyone except Shell. This will lower Shell’s price. When Shell’s price is considerably lower than the other stations we go back to buying our gasoline from Shell. By consuming intelligently we can control the price of gasoline. Everyone:

PLAY THE SHELL GAME

But to have a real impact, we need to reach literally millions of gas buyers With the help of the internet, it's really simple to do. Now, don't wimp out at this point....keep reading and I'll explain how simple it is to reach millions of people!!

I'm sending this note to about thirty people. If each of you send it to at only 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 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-the entire population of the United States of America !!!!
Again, all you have to do is forward this message to 10 people. How long would that really take you? If each of us sends this e-mail out to ten more people, within one day all 300 MILLION people could theoretically be contacted during the next eight days!

Go to http://www.ajabuspeaks.squarespace.com FOR MORE INFORMATION. Pass it around widely. Washington doesn’t know how to lower gasoline prices. We can teach them. Let’s help Washington with their oil policy.

PLAY THE SHELL GAME!!!

WHERE TO BUY AMERICAN GASOLINE. THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT TO KNOW. READ ON.

Gas rationing in the 70's worked even though we grumbled about it. It might even have been good for us!

Are you aware that the Saudis are boycotting American products? In addition, they are gouging us on oil prices.
Shouldn't we return the favor? Can't we take control of our own destiny and let these giant oil importers know who REALLY generates their profits, their livings? How about leaving American Dollars in America and reduce the import/export deficit?
An appealing remedy might be to boycott their GAS. Every time you fill up your car you can avoid putting more money into the coffers of Saudi Arabia. Just purchase gas from companies that don't import their oil from the Saudis.

Nothing is more frustrating than the feeling that every time I fill up my tank, I'm sending my money to people who I get the impression want me, my family and my friends dead. The following gas companies import Middle Eastern oil:

Shell.................................... 205,742,000 barrels

Chevron/Texaco.................... 144,332,000 barrels

Exxon /Mobil........................ 130,082,000 barrels

Marathon/Speedway............. 117,740,000 barrels

Amoco.................................. 62,231,000 barrels

The U.S. currently imports 5,517,000 barrels of crude oil per day from OPEC. If you do the math at $100 per barrel, that's over $550 million PER DAY ($200 BILLION per year!) handed over to OPEC, many of whose members are our confirmed enemies!!!!! It won't stop here - oil prices could go to $200 a barrel or higher if we keep buying their product.

Here are some large companies that do not import Middle Eastern oil:

Sunoco......................... 0 barrels
Conoco........................ 0 barrels
Sinclair....................... 0 barrels
BP / Phillips................ 0 barrels

Hess. ............................. 0 barrels
ARC0 ............................. 0 barrels

Maverick......................... 0 barrels

Flying J. .......................... 0 barrels

Valero............................ 0 barrels
Murphy Oil USA* ............. 0 Sold at Wal-Mart , gas is from South Arkansas and fully USA owned and produced.

• *Not only that but they give scholarships to all children in their town who finish high school and are legal US citizens..

All of this information is available from the U.S. Department of Energy and each company is required to state where they get their oil and how much they are importing.

But, again, to have a real impact, we need to reach literally millions of gas buyers With the help of the internet, it's really simple to do. Now, don't wimp out at this point....keep reading and I'll explain how simple it is to reach millions of people!!
