I have seen this before.

It will never work!! Think about it, how many places do gas come from??

You may buy Joe's gas instead of Mobil or Exon, but were do you think Joe gets his gas from??

Joe doesn't have a refinery, nor does he have a platform in the gulf!

So you stop buying from them and you buy from Joe, joe goes to them buys more gas from them, They make the money any way!!

Sorry boys and girls we are in it no matter what!! All the other countrys pay $4, $5 and more for there gas!!

We habve had it easy for along time! And then we run around the world saying that we are the richest country, the all powerful, and we act as the worlds police.

Well why shouldn't the richest nation in the world pay the same if not more then the rest of the world??

We will pay for being the Best, Richest, most powerful, and shoving it in everyones face!!

I saw it before too, maybe been around for years.
it won't work

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

If you think that what's in the underground tanks at most of the Exxon and Mobil stations around these parts was refined by Exxon/Mobil, you might be mistaken.

On Thursday I saw the same JP Noonan tanker delivering at 3 different brand stations within a mile. Exxon, Sunoco and Citgo.

I think the only way to impact gas prices is a pragmatic Government energy policy that will let the big oil companies know they do not have a monopoly forever.

The only way to reduce gas prices is to drive slower, drive less and use a vehicle that uses less gas.

IMO there is no reason anyone who does not tow heavy devices needs a vehicle with a V8 engine.
