GAS WAR - an
idea that WILL work
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.
Phillip 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
over 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.
