Where Do you Buy Your Gasoline?

WHERE TO BUY YOUR 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? 
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?
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.   Don't you think it might be of interest to know which oil companies import Middle Eastern oil and which do not?

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

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 $95 per barrel, that's over $524 million PER DAY ($191 BILLION per year!) handed over to OPEC, many of whose members are our confirmed enemies!!!!!

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
Maverick.........................    0 barrels
Flying J. .............................0 barrels
Valero............................    0 barrels

·        I AM GOING TO ADD THE FOLLOWING...

  • Murphy Oil USA   sold at Wal-Mart is from South Arkansas and owned USA
  • Not only that they give scholarships to all children in their town who finish high school and are legal US citizens..

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.

I agree and I'm already being careful where I buy gas; however, every company you mentioned has raised prices - to keep up with everyone else.

I own stock in several oil companies, including two you mentioned and I've received more dividends in the past two years, than the previous six years.

Sure, oil cost more, but 200% more?

I call my state representative at least once a week (it's nice when he rents space from you) and the topic often is the regulation of gas prices.

It's a thought,
Greg

You're speaking about rationing....  WE DON'T HAVE A SUPPLY PROBLEM.  The 70s was a supply problem.

The problem is price... which is due to the free market.

I not only think we should patronize those companies that don't import... I think we should be tapping our OWN SUPPLIES in the U.S.
