RE: [RC] (OT) don't buy gas is just e-mail junk - Smith, Dave
Thanx, for the common sense, Jonni.
A “gas out” is a joke. Won’t work. The fact is,
the petroleum market is a classic supply and demand issue. Worldwide
petroleum demand is up (see good U.S.
economy and the China/India economic explosion) and the world supply is down
due to governmental restrictions on construction of new refineries (none in California for four
decades). If people really want to see the price at the pump fall, they
would be a lot more effective if they demanded from their state and federal
legislatures new law that would remove the regulatory bottlenecks on new
refinery construction and the opening of domestic oil fields for production in Alaska and off the West
Coast. Until we belly up to the bar on this, we will continue to see the
price of filling up our cars and trucks climb. This already is affecting
our sport.

Snopes kind of sums this up well. I look at these e-mails as
junk mail....
