Perhaps most of you are aware of this protest, but for those of you that are not, no one is buying gas on the 15th to send a message to the gasoline companies.

I agree!!! Now, if we were lucky enough to go for about a week without buying any, that may work.Not to be a negative Nelly, but this doesn't do a thing... People need gas and will continue to buy it. Not getting gas on one day doesn't do a thing. People will either fill up today if they're low, or do it on Wednesday, and they'll still get their money.
I understand not everyone can go for these options, my point was just that not buying petrol for one day won't make a difference, it has to be a lifestyle change!Originally Posted by sherral46
We would only have 1 car,but our work hours a so far apart,I work all over the county ,driving to house to house,some days 7 hours and sometimes only 5. Ted works 12 hours a day 2 times one week and the next week 4 days.I sometimes put 90 to 100 miles a week on my van! He drives 45 mintes .1 way.So yes we are paying (gold ) to drive to work!And in our small town we don't have cabs or bus's
I agree. I wish i could go without having to use gas- but living in this area- it's unavoidable! it's not like we have cabs or even public transportaion in a lot of parts out here (in the deeper parts of memphis there is a bus line - but it is NOT safe - they've had several attacks on it and i would never risk my safety). It is also not safe to walk around the streets of memphis unfortunatelyOriginally Posted by theimp98
As others have said, it wont make any difference,
you will buy the gas today or the next day. the same amount will get used.
Also as others have said, lifestyle change is the only thing that will in the long run make any difference.
