You are right. Boycotting
You are right. Boycotting stations does no good. For instance we boycott Shell. They are not selling any gas on the street, but Exxon's demand at the stations has doubled. Soooo.. Shell sells their gas to Exxon. Nothing has changed. The only way to get the message to them is everyone stop driving for 2-3 days. Just simply park your car for the weekend. EVERYONE in the US! Not very realistic although that would definately hurt the oil companies. Another suggestion, demostrations like the illegals have held. Picket lines at refineries, government buildings etc... If you are like most hard working Americans though, you are too busy working to take the time to go march with a sign. But! If America does not stand up soon, we won't be able to sit down anymore from taking it up the rear!! Remember the Boston Tea Party? Early American had guts and bucked the Gov't to keep control. The People have no control anymore. Stand up America!!!!!
