WHERE TO BUY AMERICAN GASOLINE. THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT TO KNOW.  READ ON.

Gas rationing in the 70\'s worked even though we grumbled about it.  It might even have been good for us!

Are you aware that the Saudis are boycotting American products?

Shouldn\'t we return the favor?  Can\'t we take control of our own destiny and let these giant oil importers know who REALLY generates their profits, their livings?  How about leaving American Dollars in America and reduce the import/export deficit?

An appealing remedy might be to boycott their GAS.  Every time you fill up your car you can avoid putting more money into the coffers of Saudi Arabia .  Just purchase gas from companies that don\'t import their oil from the Saudis.

Nothing is more frustrating than the feeling that every time I fill up my tank, I\'m sending my money to people who I get the impression want me, my family and my friends dead.   Don\'t you think it might be of interest to know which oil companies import Middle Eastern oil and which do not?

These companies import Middle Eastern oil:

Shell...................................      205,742,000 barrels
Chevron/Texaco...................       144,332,000 barrels
Exxon /Mobil.......................       130,082,000 barrels
Marathon/Speedway............       117,740,000 barrels
Amoco................................       62,231,000 barrels
 
And CITGO oil is imported from Venezuela by Dictator Hugo Chavez who hates America and openly avows our economic destruction!  (We pay Chavez\'s regime nearly $10 Billion per year in oil revenues!)

The U.S. currently imports 5,517,000 barrels of crude oil per day from OPEC.  If you do the math at $95 per barrel, that\'s over $524 million PER DAY ($191 BILLION per year!) handed over to OPEC, many of whose members are our confirmed enemies!!!!!
 
Here are some large companies that do not import Middle Eastern oil:
Sunoco........................       0 barrels
Conoco........................       0 barrels
Sinclair.......................       0 barrels
BP / Phillips................        0 barrels
Hess. ........................       0 barrels
ARC0.......................        0 barrels
Maverick......................     0 barrels
Flying J. .....................      0 barrels
Valero..........................     0 barrels
·        I AM GOING TO ADD THE FOLLOWING… J

Murphy Oil USA  sold at Wal-Mart is from South Arkansas and owned USA
Not only that they give scholarships to all children in their town who finish high school and are legal US citizens.
All of this information is available from the U.S. Department of Energy and each company is required to state where they get their oil and how much they are importing.

But to have a real impact, we need to reach literally millions of gas buyers.  With the help of the internet, it\'s really simple to do.  Now, don\'t wimp out at this point....keep reading and I\'ll explain how simple it is to reach millions of people!!

I think this is a great idea.   Now if only I could find an American that owns a gas station. Or hotel, for that matter.

WV6Z:
Here\'s another consideration for you guys too..... watch out for ethanol mixes. I have found that my Trooper gets about 3 miles per gallon less when running 10% ethanol mixed fuel than it does running straight gasoline. As ethanol mixed fuel is about 2 or 3 cents a gallon less than regular unleaded gasoline, I say lets keep ethanol in the corn and use it to feed people or critters. :thinkerg:

They are putting 10% ethanol in the gas station near me. I didnt\' know it made that big a difference.  I wont\' use it today.  Gas prices are going up 20 cents (where is the cent key on my keyboard) on Monday (tomorrow) morning.  God help us, cause the Arabs won\'t.   ;(

WV6Z:
Actually our problem is the stock market speculators. Sure we can blame the Arabs and the oil companies, but, believe it or not, our problem is made right here at home. :rolleyes:
