Want to Sock It To the Bush Regime and OPEC???

Leaving your automobile at home,just one day in a month is enough amazingly,in North America,to save hundreds of millions of gallons of gasoline from being used and this has loads of benefits...!
Want to Get Even and Sock It To the Bush Regime and OPEC??? then the best and easiest way to accomplish this worthy goal is by cutting back on the amount of gasoline you buy and use every week! Start taking transit and use car pools etc.and soon gasoline usage will go down and so supplies will go up.
Right now the Bush Regime and OPEC have consumers right where they want them - their story is that oil is in short supply so prices are increasingly high as a result.The profits their making off of consumers all around the world with inflated oil prices is obscene.Consumers can fight back if the want to and below is a site that gives a basica outline on how to start and win this fight against the Murderous Oil Demagogues!
Ultimately the "solution" to this ravenous and apocalyptic Oil Crisis is in the consumer's hands - if they truly have the courage to deal with it!

Proposal - To select one day (as a start) in each month as a day of rest for your automobile,and so also relief from its negative effects on our environment.
**Leaving your automobile at home,just one day in a month is enough amazingly,in North America,to save hundreds of millions of gallons of gasoline from being used and this will have a number of positive effects,from dropping gas prices owing to having created a surplus.Also if gasoline prices are lower,then this will have an effect on lowering prices across the board on a lot of consumer goods and services because the transportation costs re gasoline,are lower as a result. The air quality in major urban centers will be much improved on this Stop-Your-Engines-Day plus these cities will have a surreal look and feel because it will be so strange (and beautiful) to walk around the streets that have no frantic,noisy traffic jams on them.

I think the last Thursday in each month would be a very good day to "Stop-Your-Engines" and leave your polluting,gas guzzling car,van or truck at home. The reason because the last Thursday in each month is a better or at least a less painful day to leave your auto at home (compared to say the last Friday) because people get off work on that day for the weekend and they usually have a lot planned from shopping to clubbing to going on trips.Thursday would be a good day for a "trial run" on reclaiming our environment from the ravages of the gasoline powered automobile including noise,traffic jams,asphalt infestation and the unsustainable (but preventable) pollution and poisoning of our breathable atmosphere.
