this has been done before , so many times. NOT the actual act of not buying gas for a day, but sending out an email or posting for people not to buy gas on a certain day....never has worked. Too many people rely on gas, and you will never get enough to not use gas for a long enough period of time to hurt the gas companies

Your perception of the Democratic party is inaccurate.
Look who spends more on pork in the last 20 years.

Bees!
One of my major disapointments with the Bush administration. Whats happened to shrinking the size and cost of goverment which has always been a republican staple? In my "dream world" I would essentially like to put a tight limit on the powers of the federal goverment. To protect us militarily, provide for the elderly, disadvantaged children, and mentally challenged. Broader diplomatic matters such as finance and foreign policy as well of course. Other than that, quite frankly I think it should be up to the people and individual states to govern themselves as they see fit concerning most other matters.
Wouldn't something like this be a whole hell of a lot better??

lol i work at a gas station. and something like this will never work. let me tell ya why.
1. you will never get enough people together to make the smallest impact. Our income varies between 5-30% everyday. so their wont be a much noticed difference.
2.Lets say u do decide to not pump gas on may 15, yet you have to go to work the 14th, 15, and 16th. Well you are either going to fill up on the 14th or the 16th. either way the company is still getting their money regardless of what day it is.
3.This is what i hope happens. I do hope there is a good turnout, and that no one pumps gas on the 15th. My boss will drop the prices to 1.50$ a gallon on the 15th, to temp people to come in. Then the next day, i would count on gas being 3.75$
