Where to buy Gas and Diesel from US Oil

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? Now unless you have a lot of investment money in foreign oil futures, this should sound inviting.




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 I get the impression) want me, my family and my friends dead.

The following gas 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


And CITGO oil is imported from Venezuela by Dictator Hugo Chavez who hates America and openly avows 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 $130 per barrel, that's over $715 million PER DAY (nearly $261 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 keep buying their product.





Here are some large companies that do not import Middle Eastern oil:


Sunoco......................... 0 barrels
Conoco.......................... 0 barrels
Sinclair........................... 0 barrels (That's where my gas money goes)
BP / Phillips...................... 0 barrels
Hess. ............................. 0 barrels
ARC0............................. 0 barrels
Maverick......................... 0 barrels
Flying J. .......................... 0 barrels

Valero............................ 0 barrels


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!!

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!
