When a very small, in stature not heart, group of colonists (some of those would later receive the title of Founding Fathers. Samuel Adams, John Hancock and Samuel Quincy Adams) got fed up with the constant taxation by an oppressive and Powerful(the most powerful in the world at that time) British government. They banded together and decided it was time to take a stand. They, in a show of contempt and displeasure, poured a shipment of tea into the Boston harbour to let the British gov. know they were not going to take it anymore! We are all aware what that incident meant in the birthing of our nation. Tyrants, monopolies, and bullies will only stop when confronted with enough resistance to alter their view. No longer seeing it to be profitable to continue those actions. All that was done without the power of the Internet. Well, Today with the tool that we tap away at each day, we can send EXXON-MOBIL as clear, if not clearer, message. I am calling for a boycott of Exxon-Mobil gas stations for just three days over the Memorial Day Weekend. This is usually their biggest weekend of the year, all the schools are out and summer travel is now full on. They are gearing up by raising the price at the pumps to all time highs. Get ready the price of a Barrel of crude closed yesterday 5/5/08 at 122 dollars. Never in the history of man and it's addiction to Oil has it been this high! BOYCOTT THEM FOR 3 DAYS and we will send them a kick in the arse of around 1 billion dollars. That's how much Profit they will make in that same three days if we do nothing! Pass this on to everyone who you have in your E-mail and if anyone other than me is fed up....it will be a historical statement! Wax on wax off....Exxon Ex off it can be that simple! UPDATE 5/22/08 The price for barrel has risen steadily, it now is at 133 dollars. Today "Big Oil" is due to face congress to give their explanation for the record prices....due we really believe that any thing will happen there that will lower prices? I don't! I know The lies they will tell to there buddies in congress. This little theater act has a very covert purpose, its to get congress to over rule environmental protection laws that were put in place to prevent the destruction of what little wild space we have left. They will cry poor mouth and say the prices are due to low supplies. Giving credence to their carefully orchestrated demand to allow them to rape more of the Earths ecosystems in order to suck more oil for them to sell. First, they are intentionally reducing the refining of oil to drive demand/price up. Exxon-Mobil has invested what would amount to about 1/2 of 1 % of their total income to green energy/renewable energy. Ya, that's the kinda company I want to support..what about you?
