I wanna start a boycott, and with your help we can getter' done !

Please copy and paste this to ANY news groups, chat sites, bulletin boards, where ever you think people will see it! Let's work together and stop the BS! !

Hello my name is Bill.

I am asking for your HELP!

Now STOP right there, this is NOT a plea for your hard earned money!!

That's not what this is about. This is about getting control of these sky rocketing gas prices all over the country.

What I am proposing, is that for the next MONTH(30) days,let's start this on JUNE 1,2007.

DO NOT purchase any fuel products from these guys: ExxonMobil Corp

ExxonMobil Corp. reported $10 billion in net income in the third quarter, the largest ever by a U.S. energy company.

ExxonMobil's earnings announcement that profits rose 75 percent from last year.

Some of there other names are :

ExxonMobil

Exxon

Esso

SpeedPass

Mobil1

Mobil Delvac

On the run

Mobil

If we can all agree to boycott just this one company for a start, you WILL see gas prices come down

and in a big hurry.

If we do it this way, we are not hurting ourselves, by changing companies, we are hitting the oil compnies

where it will hurt them the most, in there WALLETS ! ! !

Please pass this along to everyone you know.

Because it's time WE the American People took a stand,

and put the brakes on CORPORATE GREED !!!

Sounds like a good idea, but what are we gonna do the next day when the companies raise the prices by 25 cents to cover the loss? It's a possibility and I'm sure the companies have a plan in place to combat it.

Have you ever tried towing a 22 footer with a 10 speed mountain bike? :eek::P:lol:

Good point bob. What people dont realize is that all of our oil comes from the same suppliers and if you research it on the internet. you will find that exon mobile supplies over 80% of all the fuel in the country. I would like to boycot them to but you might better boycot our great american beuracracy called the us government. There running the show. Exon Mobile is just taking advantage of what the government is allowing them to do. Just like the banks and just like insurance companines. The only difference between the Mofia and the government is the Mofia used guns pointed at your head to take your money and the government just calles it against the law and threatains to throw you in jail if you dont give them your money.:lol:

Down here along Portage Rd in Kalamazoo, gas is around $3.49. In little old Decatur, it was $3.35 this morning.

Both, my truck and boat need gas...........

I started out to fish on Saturday with a quarter tank in the truck. Stopped to fill up and.....$67 for the truck, $33 for the boat. A hundred dollar bill to go fishing. When I got back, I had just a little over a quarter tank in the truck and the boat was empty. :eek::rolleyes:

this is going to make it VERY HARD TO GO FISHING EVERY WEEKEND THIS YEAR at 3.49 a gallon and up i only live 20 min. from the lake and 5 miles from work this equals out to 100 plus $s a week and that do,s not count the wifes car

I feel your pain. I have an easy to tow boat and live about 30miles away from the lake. Towing the boat, the truck gets around 13mpg. My lightweight boat with a 4 stroke outboard doesn't use much gas, either. Even with that, $3.50(and sure to rise) per gallon means I spend roughly $35 just in gas to fish. That's just to fish 1 day per weekend.

My wife and I carpool to and from work. Our car averages 28mpg and it takes $40-$45 just to put 12 gallons in that tank. I can remember in highschool(I'm 27 now) it would take a twenty dollar bill to fill up any of our cars and we'd have money leftover to go to a movie! That was just 8-9 years ago.

Now I do feel old........

I won't mention the 27+ gallon tanks we all have on our tow vehicles.........

Forget it! Wall Street loves XOM. They are up almost 30 points since this time last year.

Most of ExxonMobile's profit is not from refinned product but from profits on crude in storage. If the commidity goes up, they make money without doing anything. I love doing that!
