Text saying no to gas this May 2nd

yay hurt the owners of the gas stations …

:thiswascubansidea:

I’m getting sick of posting this:

A boycott of a couple of brands of gasoline won’t result in lower overall prices. Prices at all the non-boycotted outlets would rise due to the temporarily limited supply and increased demand, making the original prices look cheap by comparison. The shunned outlets could then make a killing by offering gasoline at its “normal” (i.e., pre-boycott) price or by selling off their output to the non-boycotted companies, who will need the extra supply to meet demand. The only person who really gets hurt in this proposed scheme is the service station operator, who has almost no control over the price of gasoline.

The only practical way of reducing gasoline prices is through the straightforward means of buying less gasoline, not through a simple and painless scheme of just shifting where we buy it. The inconvenience of driving less is a hardship too many people apparently aren’t willing to endure, however.

94blackls sent me one and i got 3 others from #'s i dont know

Do you think if everyone stopped buying heroin for a day the price would go down?

I just filled up yesterday, but I’m going to make a point to buy gas on May 2nd. :tup:

This is almost as good as the summer gas tax break myth. Please, make the government poorer so I can save $20 this summer!

Truth.

text i hope you get aids may 2nd to anybody who texts you that

petrol meet on may 2nd? anyone?

yea it would make a difference. the company u no longer buy gas from will eventually lower their price because of no buisiness. when that company lowers their then everyone will go buy gas from them instead of other places. eventually other places will lower their price to compete. and when they go lower u choose a different gas station to go on strike with. then u get even lower prices. the prices wont stay low but when u see gas going up again jus go on strike again. and the people will be in control like its suppose to be.

but in order for this to work everyone would have to follow this and we would need a lot of people.

0 texts, I’m so glad my friends are not so stupid.

wish i could say the same…

dumb women.

i wanna start a text chain saying that may 2nd, everybody set a gas station on fire…that would def get more notice than people not buying gas.

hahaha ^^^

Isnt Quick Fill american oil?

I’ve been making it a point to at least buy gas only at Citgo when I can. I know that its nearly impossible for one person to make a difference. I feel though, that buying gas from a company NOT based in the middle east is the right thing to do.

this shit is annoying. because you stop buy gas on one day doesnt mean that your not going to fill up another day. what, fill up on thursday or saturday and not friday. either way they got your money coming to them. and if you dont fill up, well then your not going anywhere unless you peddle your ass there or pay some other way to get around.

:lol:

Yeah, keep sending your money to Chavez, he’s real pro-america. :picard:

BTW, this is where US oil comes from:

KWIK FILL FTW. (North American fuel)

KWIK FILL! MORE POWER FOR YOUR DOLLARRRRRRRRRRRR

i finally got one, silly dumb females.

edit: I responded to her with “you are an idiot”

Bump, almost got off the hook. And provided a similar reply.
