GAS STRIKE MAY 2, 2008
Yes, tomorrow there will be a nationwide gas strike…. don’t purchase gas if you don’t need to. They are approximating about a $70 billion loss tomorrow. I know that a handful of the participants will not make a huge impact, but if these are consistently organized, a few more will do a lot of justice I suppose.

I am with you on this gas strike.
If we stop buying gas for just one day, the oil companies would be forced to lower the price of gas immediately. They would have a glut of gasoline on their hands.
I bought mine last night and don’t plan on driving very far this weekend.

Here is some info I found on where to buy gas:
These 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
Citgo………………….from South America , from a Dictator who hates Americans, so, don’t buy Citgo.
Here are some large companies that do not import Middle Eastern oil:
Sunoco………………0 barrels
Conoco………………0 barrels
Sinclair……………..0 barrels
B P/Phillips…………0 barrels
Hess………………….0 barrels
ARC0………………..0 barrels
All of this information is available from the Department of Energy and each is required to state where they get their oil and how much they are importing.
