don't buy gas day won't work today as it didn't work last year, and the year before (when they tried it like 3 times in one year)...

get rid of dependence on oil, and then you'll be free.. not a moment sooner.

its cost between 3 and 5 cents a litre to convert crude oil to refined...compnaies are charging 35 cents a litre for this, talk about gouging!!

Oil companies also get funding and subsity, WTF is up with that!

Wow, this kind of reminds me of Fight club. Start your own little gorilla army of guys running around attacking places. Places like gas stations with the highest prices...hmm....

I'll still buy fas when I need to go farther than work, and even in that case, I'll just pay whatever it is. Nobody is holding a gun to my head and telling me that I SHALL drive, and therefore SHALL buy gas. There eventually won't be that much savings in other forms of transport either...as you all already know, the fuel prices affect vehicles other than passenger cars...
