who knows if itll really work but, seriously it cant fucking hurt..
TRY TO SERIOUSLY FOLLOW UP ON THIS... and post it on other forums on other sites
Dont Buy gas on September 3rd!!!! Boycotting the gas company will decrease the price dramatically. Ive checked into it and if over half the US didnt buy gas for 1 day, the gas companys would be close to bankrupcy!!! So Lets show them how to lower gas prices. So send this to all your friends. We have to get the word out. Its NATIONAL DONT BUY GAS DAY!!!
Happy Trails to all!

Tell me, how does this one differ from previous "national don't buy gas" days that undoubtedly haven't worked? If I'm on empty on September 3rd, my ass is buying gas.

It doesn't work because only a small number random internet people even KNOW about it, plus, those that do are just going to fill up the day before or day after, or whenever their tank empties. If you really want to make a statement, sell your car and buy a bike.

Think of all of the businesses that have to gas up their whole fleet of cars several times a day.
Of course, I realize this could be effective if enough single people went through with it, but theres no way half of the US population will be able to go a whole day without getting gas.

I think this is a good idea. Problem is it would have to be a real coordinated effort. Maybe we could get the media involved somehow. Even then, some pud like Bill Oriley would try to stop it.

Not much, and hopefully it stays that way. I'm sure he'd love to see a project like this get thrown in the garbage. He hates any type of protesting of big business.
And yeah, I'm sure he buys gas too. The difference is, he has MORE THAN ENOUGH money to pay for it with his big salary from Fox.

That is the stupidest fucking bullshit I have ever read. No offense to the poster what chained it.
Get this. If someone doesnt buy gas ONE day, they will either stock up the day before, or buy more gas the day after. There for, cancelling out the fact that they boycotted the gas company.
In theory, you are just shifting the demand for gas from ONE day to another....which indirectly does not effect the gas situation at all.
Gas is inelastic. No matter the price, people will still buy it because we are dependant on it for our transportation.
The SMART way to effectively trim the prices on gas would be to carpool....and by carpool, I mean everyone in the country carpool. That's not going to happen, and is just wishful thinking....but with our growing technological advances everyday on the subject of becoming less dependant on the middle east, mainly saudi arabia...for crude oil, only then will we prevail as the victor in the battle over the mighty dollar.
Fuck yeah.

Fuck that. September 3rd I'm driving down to SoCal to go to Nocturnal Wonderland. Oil is just going to keep going up in price because supply is diminishing. The best you can hope for is a tiny blip on the slope. It's idiotic to think we can actually make gas cheap again.

I love it when someone pulls up in a big SUV or Truck and start bitching about gas being expensive. Yeah, even if it gets to $5/gallon, you're still gonna buy it. Hate the gas price?
Get a gas effecient car. Carpool. Buy a bike.
Oh and did anyone see the new GM commercials with the promise of making their new models 30 miles/gallon or more? Guess shit finally hit the fan when they realized Toyota was starting to outrun them in car percentages sold for the US population.

Indeed, those idiots buy cars that get 8, 9 miles to the gallon (literally) and only now are starting to complain. How many people didn't see this coming? It's really the only logical conclusion; and we can continue to draw the logical conclusion that gas prices will only go up more with time as demand tightens even more, so now would be a good time to sell the SUV and buy a Toyota.

Demand has caught up to supply, with respect to crude oil. Boycotting gasoline purchases for one day will do absolutely nothing to this price, nor will it bankrupt any of the major oil companies.
One day? Are you serious? 
Ive checked into it and if over half the US didnt buy gas for 1 day, the gas companys would be close to bankrupcy!!!
Well if you've "checked into it" then you won't mind providing us with some links and sources so that we can "check into it".
Can you supply any of those sources?

We don't live in tiny hippy communes where we can share oats and and grains and hemp necklaces. Until then we are going to need our damn machines and pay big money for them.
This gas boycotting is retarded and doesn't work.
On a side note, I heard Japans population rate is declining for the first time as more people are dying than giving birth. If every country could somehow follow suite the rising demand for oil would diminish some. "Quit rutting, just for a fucking day!" That could be a campaign that actually works.

Dont Buy gas on September 3rd!!!! Boycotting the gas company will decrease the price dramatically. Ive checked into it and if over half the US didnt buy gas for 1 day, the gas companys would be close to bankrupcy!!! So Lets show them how to lower gas prices. So send this to all your friends. We have to get the word out. Its NATIONAL DONT BUY GAS DAY!!!
Happy Trails to all!
