The price of a gallon of gas is getting quite ridiculous, and by my figuring, I don't see it stopping any time soon.
Unless we do something about it.
I've heard repeated calls to boycott gas on a certain day of the week, or just boycott a certain oil company.
I've been thinking about this issue for a while now, mentioning it to Neal and the rest of my government class, but I want it to become a national project, one that will make the gas companies and the rest of the nation take notice that there IS something we can do to fight this growing problem.
What I suggest is that we NOT buy gas from ExxonMobil.... at all. The CEO, when he retired, received a $700 million payout from the company. Now what good would it do to keep buying gas from them to keep giving payout after payout.
more on this later.....

We're screwed; as long as the Oil Administration remains in office.
More on this much later, right, Justin? :)
I think we should only buy from Conoco, since it's run out of Hugo Chavez's Venezuala, and we want to tick Bush and Cheney off.
I meant to put Citgo, not Conoco.
prices of gas are gone up all over the world.

If you look at the historical price of gas as a percent of income, gas is the cheapest its been in history. http://www.cato.org/pub_display.php?pub_id=6440
Let's not forget that America's high standard of living is tied to companies like Exxon-Mobil in the form of fuel provided, jobs created, and shareholder value added. For those who side with Chavez then relocation to Venezuela, Cuba or China should be considered, but realize that you'll never get the food, shelter, education, healthcare, and democratic opportunities that this country affords.
