hey theres many going to boycott today. i guess they didnt see the 50 million cars still running around the country today. just like a 1000 pound fat person trying to cut his 20pound meal to like 5 ounces just to lose some weight but end up feeling twice as hungry and ends up eating 40 pounds tomorrow. |

Aye-aye-aye. I am amazed at how many people are on here saying this. Look, I really appeciate your intentions, but use some common sense! Even if EVERYONE participated, this has NO impact on the oil companies or gas stations, because it doesn't change how much gas they sell. All that happens is that people buy their gas a day earlier or a day later. That said, you CAN make a difference. If you really, really want to help lower gas prices, you have to STOP USING GAS. Period. If you are not willing to walk or take the bus more, then you are going to be wasting your time bothering to "boycott" by not buying gas. Changing the day you get gas makes no difference. Snopes.com covered this subject very well. The link is below. |

Going to have to agree with Mr. Taco. It will only double the lines on the 14th & 16th. They will use that surge on those days as an excuse to raise prices even further. Because we are not consuming less, we will only change when we consume.
The key is conservation. Take the bus a few times a week. Ride a bike. Carpool. Dont run your a/c constantly, roll down the window. That will reduce the need for more gas, & that is what drops the price.
It is the law of supply & demand: the higher the demand, the higher the cost because there is a shortage of supply & they have to work harder to get more to meet the demand. The lower demand, the lower the cost because there is a buildup of supply & they dont have to work as hard to get the resource.
An example: if you are selling something & you sell 500 units per week, will you drop the price if you still sell 500 per week but it spread out differently? LIke you sell 100 per day, & you dont sell any on 1 day but 2 days you have a 50% increase of sales? But if people slowed the buying all around & you suddenly only sell 450/wk, then 400, then 325. Eventually, you would lower the price, because you have a stockpile of it. |

even if people boycott today, they will buy it tomarrow --which means that the gas man gets his money anyways-- |

Is it really going to hurt any of you not to buy gas today? How long have we been hearing about this? I know you don't buy gas everyday (or I sure hope not) why not do what we can. At least you are taking some type of action or measure to take a stand against corruption in the oil industry.
I do not agree this will directly affect the profits of the oil companies. But I do think it sends a strong message (mostly to ourselves) about the power we have in our supply and demand economy as a consumer. Maybe we won't buy gas today...maybe next month or next year we will start changing our lives to cut down on fuel consumption.
Those who flat out dismiss the boycott as useless: what, have you just given up? You are totally fine with $4/gallon gas? It seems so ignorant and irresponsible to not AT LEAST make an effort to participate in change if it doesn't hurt you to do so. |

No, I don't have enough gas in my tank to get home from work. It's still going to be 3.15 in my town anyway for one gallon of regular. |
