Don't buy from China or Gas from Saudi !

I've been 'working hard' at buying nothing made in China. It was
kinda tough in the beginning but it has amazingly gotten easier as I have
gone along. I've found that I can do without China products if I stop and
ask myself: "Do I absolutely have to have this item?" Almost always the
answer is "NO!"

Believe if I work at it, I don't have to buy any Saudi gas either! Try it;
you might be surprised how easy it is to say "NO" after a week or so!
Please pass to your friends.

*This message even tells us who does not buy from the Saudis...... ......
......... Interesting*

*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? In addition, they are gouging us on oil
prices.

*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 want me, my family and my friends
dead.*

*The following gas companies import Middle Eastern oil:*
*Shell............. 205,742,000 bbl
Chevron/Texaco. ..144,332, 000 bbl
Exxon Mobil....... ......130, 082,000 bbl
Marathon/Speedway. 117,740,000 bbl
Amoco....... ......... ........62, 231,000 bbl*
*CITGO oil is from Venezuela, the "President" is Dictator Hugo Chavez who
openly hates America and vows to cause 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 $70 per barrel, (today's price) that's
over $386 million PER DAY ($141 BILLION per year!) handed over to OPEC,
many of whose members are our confirmed enemies!!!!! *
*It won't stop here - oil prices could go to $200 a barrel or higher if
we're not careful and keep buying their products.*
*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**
***Murphy Oil USA* ......... 0** *
*Note: Murphy is sold at Wal-Mart , the gas is from South Arkansas and
fully USA owned and produced.** **
***Not only that but 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'm
sending this note to about thirty people. If each of you send it to at
only ten more (30 x 10 = 300)....and those 300 send it to at least ten more
(300 x 10 = 3,000)...... .and so on, by the time the message reaches the
sixth generation of people, we will have reached over THREE MILLION
consumers!!! !!!!*

If those three million get excited and pass this on to ten friends each,
then 30 million people will have been contacted! If it goes one level
further, you guessed it....THREE HUNDRED MILLION PEOPLE-the entire
population of the United States of America !!!!
*Again, all you have to do is forward this message to 10 people. How long
would that really take you? If each of us sends this e-mail out to ten
more people, within one day all 300 MILLION people could theoretically be
contacted during the next eight days!*
