This boycott was probably made up by the competing oil companies haha.
Anyway, I find it ridiculous that while the rest of the world has been paying 6$ a gallon for the past 10 years, Americans are able to drive SUV's to work.
This artificial economy is what's responsible for the upcoming recession, instead of being competitive with the rest of the world, America's economy has been in its own bubble, and now the bubble is about to pop because it can't stay around forever.
One of the main flaws is that over here anyone is able to take out a loan for anything. I'm not talking just individuals, everyone does it, big businesses, organizations, the government, debt runs deep. While it's a great thing for us as individuals to be able to buy things on loan, it's really bad for the economy. Now there's billions of dollars floating around that no one will ever see because the money doesn't exist.
Gas will only go up until it levels off at about what other countries are paying, and there's nothing we can do about it, except being smart with our money.
