Where to buy you USA-Gas

Subject: Where to Buy Your USA-GAS

I think this is extremely important for all Americans:

WHERE TO BUY YOUR USA-GAS

WHERE TO BUY YOUR USA-GAS, THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT TO KNOW. READ ON--
Gas rationing in the 80's worked even though we grumbled about it. It might even be good for us!

The Saudis are boycotting American goods.

We should return the favor.

An interesting thought is to boycott their GAS. Every time you fill up the car, you can avoid putting more money into the coffers of Saudi Arabia Just buy from gas companies that don't import their oil from the Saudis.

Nothi n g is more frustrating than the feeling that every time I fill-up the tank, I am sending my money to people who are trying to kill me, my family, and my friends.

I thought it might be interesting for you to know which oil companies are the best to buy gas from and which major companies import Middle Eastern oil.

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

Citgo Gas comes from South America , from a Dictator who hates Americans.

Do the math at $30/barrel, these imports amount to over $18 BILLION! (Oil is now $90-$95 a barrel)

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 Also: Pilot, Flying J, Love's, RaceTrac, Valero

All of this information is available from the Department of Energy
And each is required to state where they get their oil and how much
They are importing.

But to have an impact, we need to reach literally millions of gas buyers. 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 least ten more (30 x 10 = 300)... And

Those 300 send it to a t 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!!!

Again, all you have to do is send this to

10 people. How long would all that take?

If each of us sends this e-mail out to ten more people within one day, all 300 MILLION people could conceivably be contacted within the next eight DA ys!

To have self-respect is everything. Without it, we are nothing but unwilling slaves, at everbody's mercy, especially those who we fear or hold in contempt. Without self-respect, we give ourselves away and make the ultimate sacrifice; WE SELL OURSELVES OUT!!

You say Marathon imports 117,740,000 barrels of oil from the middle east so we should not buy from them.

Yet you say that Pilot does not import any and we should buy our gas from them.

Now go to Pilot's web site (pilotcorp.com)and look under about us. You will see that Pilot Travel Centers is 50% owned by Pilot Corp. and 50% owned by Marathon Oil.

Sinclair !!! LOL they have been out of business for 30-40 years !!!!! They may ? of sold out to Marathon ? I liked their emblem with the picture of a Dinosur on it. We had an old fuel tank with one on it.

Look at it this way..... ...
Marathon is a oil buyer and refiner.
They sell at the rack level to many brands.
They sell at the station level under the brand of Marathon; Speedway; and Pilot.

Price is based on demand, but also note that the USA has the cheapest prices on both gasoline and deisel compared to European countries, Australia, and Asian countries. China even has higher prices for fuel.

Fuel is not the only use for petroleum. Look at all the others that require petroleum and its by products. To reduce demand means reducing useage on a lot more than fuel.

Its how much we use not who we buy it from.

I agree with your premus though. It is in my opinion a national security issue. When people who dont like us control both our oil supply and our money.

We are at risk now. What if the Chineese dont buy our debt? What if the Arabs cut off our oil? Just plain stupid.
We need to fix both these problems.

". . . Just buy from gas companies that don't import their oil from the Saudis"

#1 - a problem exists with actually knowing who's getting oil from where. You mentioned BP not importing Middle Eastern oil - and that's not true. Your figures might relate to BP American division - but not BP as a corporation. BP does a good job of enhancing their corporate image - but remember they started out as Burmah Oil and Anglo-Iranian Corp. Then British Petroleum, then the new nonsense name of Beyond Petroleum, etc.

#2 problem - i.e. boycotting

The Saudis sell 15% of their oil to the USA - so we're not actually their biggest customer. They don't need us so badly that some small boycott will hurt them. We, as a nation, keep begging them to INCREASE production.

The USA buys a lot of oil from Canada and Mexico - and both have put many limits on goods we try to sell them (as we have to them). How come you're not angry at them?

Mexico sells 92% of their oil to us, and Canada sells 99% - so to them we ARE big customers. I'm not sure if they need us though - I suspect Canada would love to sell elsewhere for more dollars.

The USA buys 18% of its oil from Canada, 15% from Mexico, 12% from the Saudis, 12% from Nigeria, etc. (changes all the time, but these are average figures).

We're dependent on a product that someone else has. And, we're going to fix things by not buying? I don't think so. How about using less instead? Not by boycotting - by becoming more efficient and using different technologies.

You also say that $2.00 a gallon is plenty. Well, it's not our oil, so it's not up to us. That is, unless you believe the price of crude, and the size of finite reserves, has nothing to do with the price of gasoline.
