    Got this from MN Sport Compacts...

    September 1st, everyone is going to try to not buy gas from any gas stations in america or canada. Emails were sent to EVERYONE!!! I'm doing my part to try to lower the damn prices. It has been calculated that the oil companies will lose somewhere near 48 billion dollars if most people in the USA and CANADA do not buy gas on september 1st. Do what you can people and let everyone know. The government wont help lower prices, they aren't doing SHIET! Spread the word, get this out to as much people as possible. With the help of everyone not buying gas on just ONE day. We can pretty much be gauranteed that gas prices will go down. I'm not saying for sure, but its a chance, and with the 48 billion loss they'll take, i assume they'll fucking wake up and quit jacking up prices. Do what you can people.

        Not sure if this is going to work, but rather than sitting there and watch gas prices sky rocket, why not give it a try..

                  This comes up every year, and every year it makes absolutely no difference.

                      This wouldn't work even if everyone did it simply cause people won't buy less gas with this they just buy it on a different day

                        This never works. Now, if we got everyone in the US to ride their huffys for a month, we might put a dent.

                          im riding my motorcycle everywhere I go...50 miles/gallon. That means I have to fill up less. We should all get bikes or hybrids. But then they would just raise the price more because everbody was filling less.

                            in MY opinion our government sucks. they know that gas to us "kids" as they call us is like water, or medicine for a sick person. we need it and they know that. no matter what we do our economy still will go down and they will still profit. i think that bushs goal now is to get the usa out of debt and he doesnt care who he has to run over to do that

                              I didn't like either of the candidates this last time but if bushes goal was to get the U.S. out of debt we wouldn't be in a war that is causing the debt to go up every day... that is what put us in worse shape again instead of continuing to go down like we were before it

                                i really like the bike idea. was going to buy one but found a 240 for dirt cheap and i'll be happy with high 20's on the highway and high teens in town. that like double the milage i get with the jeep

                                  exactly. keyword being 'might.'

                                  not buying gas on one day means that people just have to buy more gas on other days. either way, they still make the same amount of money.. just on different days.

                                      i was just watching cnn and the reason for the high gas prices is for this big hurricane and that makes no sense. you would think that if all these cities are flooded that there would be no need for gas there so it would be cheaper else were. but thats not how it works.

                                          And alot of other places...

                                          Seriously, because crude oil production is down, that means that within hours the price at the pump is affected? fuck that, when i worked at a gas station, we got filled up by the tanker once a week, at the most.

                                          but i really dont care, i will buy gas no matter what price it is at, and really do not look or care about the price. its worthless even thinking about it
