If we all boycotted gas who all would join in?

we should set up a date to boycott or use as little gas as we can because it will become really bad soon we should set it up a year in advance or half a year what would be better?

Reply:no one would go anywhere.


it would be nice to ee the prices go down.


god, i don't wanna see what it would be when i start to drive.
Reply:People who could walk to work.
Reply:It won't do any good. Oil is huge on the global market and the reality is any fuel not bought up in the U.S. will gladly be bought up elsewhere.
Reply:I can't boycott. I don't have public transportation and I can't afford a taxi. I have a bad back and can't ride a bike everywhere (I used to when I was 20)...Besides, no one will remember to do it in a year.
Reply:What's your solution? Ride a bike 15 miles each way to work in 105 degrees?





A boycott will NOT lower the price of gas. If we don't buy it, China and India will.





$5/gal gas is coming, and is here to stay. Dump the SUV and get used to it!

Sorry I would have to pass, there is no public transportation to my job, and my commute is 165 mile each way(only takes two hours without traffic)

Reply:It's not going to change a thing. When are you people going to wake up to the fact there is a world market out there.If you don't want to buy plenty of other people will. As far as $5 a gallon gas goes,I'm sorry it's going to go way past that. $7 is a more realistic figure. At least you can still buy gas. In the seventies you could not even buy it and the price still went up. Does that tell you something about how little affect a boycott would have? You have no control over the price of gas.
Reply:Gas is a product that can't be boycotted- It is necessary to drive to work, in my case a 60 mile round trip daily- It would be like trying to get everybody to boycott food . Sit sown and try to think about something that we may have a little control over- perhaps the greed of the oil companies?
Reply:Only way to boycott is to boycott driving, not buying gas. That could actually work.





As for the doomsday people who claim "$5 gas is here to stay" and "more like $7", don't be so sure. Most economists I'm seeing are saying that before we hit $5 averages, oil will bust and we'll start heading in the opposite direction.





John Cassidy, for one, believes that once it peaks, it's going to crash. He predicts that such a crash might send gas tumbling all the way back to $1.50 for a gallon. History's shown that this doesn't last, and we will see if it repeats.
