Are you Fed Up with high fuel prices!

I SAID IT YES I DID !
Our goverment has failed the American people with sky high fuel prices, food cost, utilitys, etc. Now it's time for the people of America to act by taking off 2 weeks from work and not spending doing the Memorial Day weekend 2008 this will rattle the cage if Americans stop working and not spend for 2 weeks.
:patriot:
 
Yeah, that will rattle cages...


Unless I'm mistaken, this is a Democratic country and YOU elected those people into office. It's not the GOVERNMENT'S FAULT, it's bad choices made by you and me and our elected officials. High fuel prices are not a result of government, but monopoly fuel companies, PRIVATELY OWNED.

How on earth is not spending for 2 weeks going to help anything at all, except put local business people out of business?? Explain your concept....

The same way the truckers do when they all strike if they would just UNITE!

Yeah, these ideas always work. That would show them.

You'd have better luck drilling for oil in your own back yard.

I got an idea, almost as good as raven's I think. Lets do a forum group buy on rollerskates. For the whole summer everyone will protest the oil companies by rollerskating to work everyday.

Sorry if you have to commute more than a few miles.

If...

...we all start walking to the East at the same time and build up speed, we can reverse the Earth's rotation and turn back time! Then, when we get back far enough, we can stop and build fuel tanks in our basements and buy a whole bunch of cheap gas and then let the earth resume it's normal rotation!

Could we then walk really fast to the West and move back to present time?? I don't want to re-live my high school years. . .

Can we do this around the 2nd week of August? I'll be out of the country at that time and won't be making purchases anyway.
