Boycott Gasoline!
The world is in turmoil and there are millions upon millions of people suffering, living a daily hell! But there is a group of people, who know not what this eternal punishment is like. Those are the people who are in conjuction with OPEC and the gasoline companies. For they have no need to worry about scraping and scratching every bit of they way, they have single handled taken over the world with their outrageous gasoline prices. Many people are comparing these current event to the crisis in the 1970s when gas prices were also quite expensive, but there is no comparison because the two situations are entirely unique. In the '70s there was a shortage which was the reason for the high prices, today it is greediness which is increasing prices.
And we as innocent consumers, dependent on gasoline to live our daily lives are forced to fork out our hard earned money to make our daily commutes. We are harmless bystanders being slowly murdered by greedy pirates of the oil industry. I sympathize with your pain and agony, but I do believe that we should all stop taking this from OPEC and make a stand.
I would like to encourage everyone to boycott gasoline and not use our automobiles for our daily commutes. Enviromentalists having been asking us to take our bikes to work or walk to the supermarket, and I feel as if there is no better time than right now to start doing this. There are many benefits to it. First and formost, you'll save money and not have gasoline control your life. Second, America is the most over weight country and taking a walk to work would greatly improve the overall health of the nation. And finally, the enviroment would also benefit without having to worry about harmful emission from exhaust.
It should be easy to see the benefits by now. Plus, who know, with time perhaps OPEC will increase production and lower prices. We all want this to end, and no one wants to spend three dollars a gallon for gasoline. All that's left to say is,"Speak up and make a difference!"
