A strategy to reduce the price of petrol
A chain email i recieved today, those who can be bothered have a read. Dunno how accurate it is !
Luke
"Price of Petrol" -
Received the following which sounds like a good idea. A very interesting
idea...AND it will work if ALL Australians get behind it!!!
We are going to hit close to $1.35 a litre by the winter.
Want petrol prices to come down?
We need to take some intelligent, united action.
Philip Hollsworth, offered this good idea. This makes MUCH MORE SENSE than
the "don't buy petrol on a certain day" campaign that was going around last
April or May! The oil companies just laughed at that because they knew we
wouldn't continue to "hurt ourselves by refusing to buy petrol. It was more
of an inconvenience to us than it was a problem for them.
BUT, whomever thought of this idea, has come up with a plan that can really
work. Please read it and join in! Now that the oil companies and the OPEC
nations have conditioned us to think that the cost of a litre is CHEAP at
.89 / ..95 cents, we need to take aggressive action to teach them that
BUYERS control the marketplace not sellers. With the price of petrol going
up more each day, we consumers need to take action. The only way we are
going to see the price of petrol come down is if we hit someone in the
pocket by not purchasing their Petrol! And we can do that WITHOUT hurting
ourselves.
Here's the idea.
For the rest of this year, DON'T purchase ANY petrol from the two biggest
oil companies (which now are one: BP). If they are not selling any petrol,
they will be inclined to reduce their prices. If they reduce their prices,
the other companies will have to follow suit. But to have an impact, we need
to reach literally millions of BP petrol buyers. It's really simple to do!!
Now, don't whimp out on me at this point...keep reading and I'll explain how
simple it is to reach millions of people!!
I am sending this note to a lot of people. If each of you send it to at
least 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!
Again, all you have to do is send this to 10 people. That's all (and not buy
at BP). How long would all that take? If each of us sends this email out to
ten more people within one day of receipt, all 300 MILLION people could
conceivably be contacted within the next 8 days!!! I'll bet you didn't think
you and I had that much potential, did you! Acting together we can make a
difference. If this makes sense to you, please pass this message on.
PLEASE HOLD OUT UNTIL THEY LOWER THEIR PRICES TO THE 80cents a LITRE
RANGE
Action - It's easy to make this happen. Just forward this email, and buy
your petrol at Shell, Caltex, Mobil, g,a.s. or Gulf Outlets and drive right
on by BP Stations.
