Stick it to big oil!

I was just reading about Bee County Texas the other day. It seems the good folks there have finally had enough of the high prices they have been paying for gasoline. They are boycotting Exxon until the price for regular unleaded comes back down to $1.30. The idea is to not buy any gasoline at any Exxon or Mobile stations while supporting the stores with inside business so that the employees will still have a job. The effort they desire to put forward is the best of intentions but is quite naive. You don’t play fair with neo-cons and big oil, they don’t speak the language. These people rape natural resources for breakfast each morning using your tax dollars to do so. No, you hit them so hard their stinkin rich grandchildren will still be feeling it! Gas stations don’t make jack on the fuel sales, they are driven by the overinflated prices on all the junk we buy inside the store. Most all of us need gasoline to do what we’ve got to do each day so put that on the back burner - buy gasoline. BUT ONLY GASOLINE! Deny them all inside sales, show them that you are fed up and are not going to take anymore! KICK THEM IN THE....... well we are supposed to remain civil here, yes? Taking away their convenience sales is how you BRING THEM TO THEIR KNEES. This is how we must hurt them. If you can find a way to not use gasoline then by all means boycott the gas as well!

  • Thanks, but it ain’t gonna happen.

    • It WILL happen if enough of us sheeple do it. I’m doing it right now and so are a lot of people I know!!!

  • Drive on by and do not even go there.......

  • Don’t miss my point - the point is don’t buy anything inside the gas station stores. That is where they make the most profit. Most stores could care less about gasoline sales other than that it is the reason for you to stop and then get you in the door to buy all the overinflated goods inside. You can always buy cheaper at your supermarket anyway. Deny them these inside sales and show them that you are plssed off and will not take it anymore.
