    North American gasoline

    WHERE TO BUY AMERICAN GASOLINE


    You might want to pass this on.... Take a look at WALMART. WOW! They do it right.

    WHERE TO BUY AMERICAN GASOLINE. THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT TO KNOW. READ ON..

    Are you aware that the Saudis are boycotting American products? In addition, they are gouging us on oil prices.
    Shouldn't we return the favor?
    Can't we take control of our own destiny and let these giant oil importers know who REALLY generates their profits, their livings? How about leaving American Dollars in America and reduce the import/export deficit?
    An appealing remedy might be to boycott their GAS.

    Shell.................................... 205,742,000 barrels
    Chevron/Texaco..................... 144,332,000 barrels
    Exxon /Mobil........................ 130,082,000 barrels
    Marathon/Speedway............. 117,740,000 barrels
    Amoco................................. 62,231,000 barrels

    And CITGO oil is imported from Venezuela who's Dictator Hugo Chavez hates America and openly avows our economic destruction! (We pay Chavez's regime nearly $10 Billion per year in oil revenues!)

    The U.S. Currently imports 5,517,000 barrels of crude oil per day from OPEC. If you do the math at $100 per barrel, that's over $550 million PER DAY ($200 BILLION per year!) handed over to OPEC, many of whose members are our confirmed enemies!!!!! It won't stop here - oil prices could go to $200 a barrel or higher if we keep buying their product.

    Here are some large companies that do not import Middle Eastern oil:
    Sunoco..........................0 barrels
    Conoco...........................0 barrels
    Sinclair..........................0 barrels
    BP/Phillips....................0 barrels
    Hess.............................0 barrels
    ARC0...............................0 barrels
    Maverick.......................0 barrels
    Flying J..........................0 barrels
    Valero............................0 barrels
    Murphy Oil USA *..............0 barrels
    *Sold at Wal-Mart <, gas is from South Arkansas and fully USA owned and produced.
    *Not only that but they give scholarships to all children in their town who finish high school and are legal US citizens. REMEMBER, ALL GAS IS THE SAME.
    All of this information is available from the U.S. Department of Energy and each company is required to state where they get their oil and how much they are importing.

    But to have a real impact, we need to reach literally millions of gas buyers. With the help of the Internet, it's really simple to do. Now, don't WIMP out at this point.... Keep reading and I'll explain how simple it is to reach millions of people!!




    And here is a news item from the week of December 26, 2010. The CEO of Shell Oil said gas prices may reach $5.00 per gallon by 2012. That is just 1 year from now. So don't complain if you don't co-operate. Just buy these American listed gas from the above and send the message to abroad and out government.

    I'm sending this note to all on my e-mail list. If each of you send it to at only ten more (30 x 10 = 300)... And those 300 send it to at least ten more (300 x 10 = 3,000)... And so on, by the time the message reaches the sixth generation of people, we will have reached over THREE MILLION consumers!!!!!!!

    If those three million get excited and pass this on to ten friends each, then 30 million people will have been contacted! If it goes one level further, you guessed it...THREE HUNDRED and THIRTY MILLION PEOPLE-the entire population of the United States of America and Canada !!!!
    Necessity is the mother of invention.............

    There is no shortage of gasoline right now.
    The reason why oil prices have gone up is because the American government is printing money by the ton.
    When you print a lot of money it delutes the value of the dollar. If you double the money supply, then dollars are worth less. The value of oil remains the same, so it takes more dollars to buy the oil. It looks like the price of oil is going up, but the buying power of your dollar has actually gone down, requireing you to pay more dollars for a gallon of gas.

    Blame our government (and the bums on Wall Street) for the high price of gas.
    I just paid $78 for a tank full AND I bought it at WallMart -- $4.17 / gallon, the cheepest in my area!

    Our government is printing money to bail us out of this recession, and support 3 wars.
    It would have helped if they would have stopped the insane home lending the bankers were doing 3 years ago - Heck, my cat could have qualified for a $250000 loan!!! Anyone could see the lending was out of control!
    Our economy would be a lot better if we wernt in THREE WARS!!!!

    Insted of boycotting oil companies, we should vote out the politicans than cant do the right thing, like balance the budget, and get us out of these useless wars!

    Get out of the wars! Nation building in Iraq is the dumbest idea i ever heard!
    The Russians discovered that fighting the Afgans was a loosing battle. The russians went bankrupt - Is that whats gonna happen to us (or has it allready happened)????
    Ballance the US budget!!

    You think the price of gas is high now -- I am looking for $5.00 a gallon this summer!

      Top sellers from 2010;

      1.Ford F-Series------------- 528,349 (+27.7%)
      2.Chevrolet Silverado ------370,135 (+16.9 %

      Seems no-one actually cares about gas prices......and how many people actually need these...just compensating for other things.

        Sorry, the above is a complete disconnect from reality. While I decry the inflationary practices of the current US regime, gas prices are high chiefly because of the global cost, not the value of the dollar. Oil is a global commodity and is it's price is effected by supply and demand - but also by futures traders who get worried when they THINK there may be a problem in coming months. They jack up the price even when the current supply is okay.

        The price we pay for gas is tied to the global price of oil. When the price of a barrel of oil rises from $75 a year ago to $124 today, the price of gasoline has to follow - from under $2.00 to over $3.85. Actually in the US we pay a lot less than in most counties, this due to lower taxes which average ~$0.48 here. In the UK for example the gas costs about the same to the pump, but the government there levies huge taxes (175%) on it leaving the cost to the consumer of over $8/gal. Most of the EU follows suit. Thus the cost of gas is about the same globally - because it is a golbal commodity. It is the local tax structure that effects the price consumers pay for gas. Exchange rates are a very minor player in this market.

                Fluid,

                I agree, the speculators are running up the price of oil, because of what might happen in North Africa (where the oil is).

                Oil is traded and priced in our dollars, even in forign countries.

                The unrest in north Africa is partly because the US is printing too much money.
                It is causing world wide inflation and the people of north Africa could no longer afford their food, so they are revolting.

                We went off the "gold standard" after the 1929 depression.
                The government did it so they could print all the money they needed to lift us out of the depression.
                Now, we are doing it again. It causes bad inflation.
                I dont like it, because it lowers everyones standard of living, you gotta pay more for everything, including gas.

                A better plan, would be to have responsable bankers that didnt make bogus loans, and avoid the crisis we are in now.
                Also, we need to stop the wild spending going on in Washington.

                    Doby,

                    Your gonna hate me, but I have a Toyota Tacoma pickup truck (non US made).
                    Used to have a Ford Ranger (small pick up).

                    My Toyota gets 22 MPG
                    I commute 70 miles a day, so MPG is important.
                    Your right, I only use the pickup truck feature about 5% of the time. - It works good for hauling a bunch of boats to the lake!!

                    Been looking at VW Jetta TDI diesel -- gets 42 MPG.

                    Nissen Leaf (totaly electric) wont make the 70 mile round trip.
                    Chevy Volt would be good, but you cant buy one yet and they are too expensive @ $40,000

                    You guys are right, we suck too much gas in this country.
                    I feel that I need a big heavy pickup truck for safety.
                    With all the big SUV's on the road, if you get hit by one and you are driving something small, then your gonna get hurt!
                    If the big SUV's were off the road, I would get something smaller.
                    Theres safety in weight and size.

                    Mark

                      What would be the result of a dumpster truck hitting you. I do not buy into this bigger than you safety response, as that makes for aggresive driving by rather bad drivers in the first place

                            You are correct...lots do...but, lots buy them as status symbols and nothing else. Its amazing how many you see on the road...these big bad off roaders that never even see a dirt road...just get parked in the garage after a tough day commuting a few miles to work. Chrome shining and Armour All shining on the tires.
