South Africans show your support

This is about petrol prices and an invitation to join the resistance. By the
end of this month petrol prices are set to soar even higher.

If we want the petrol price to come down, we all need to take some
intelligent, united action.

Last year there was a "don't buy petrol day"-but the oil companies

Just laughed at that because they knew that we would "hurt" ourselves by
refusing to buy petrol.

It was more of an inconvenience to us than a problem to them.



But, whoever thought of the ideas, has come up with a plan that can really
work.



READ ON AND JOIN THE ACTION!!

By now you probably thinking petrol priced at about R4.50 is cheap. It is
currently at + R6 for regular and unleaded.

Now that the oil companies and the OPEC nations (the bullies like US and
Britain) have condition! ed us to think that the cost of a litre is cheap at
R 5.00 ,
We need to take aggressive action to teach them that buyers control the
marketplace......... Not the sellers.

With the price of petrol going up 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. How?

Since we rely on our cars, we just cannot stop buying petrol.

But we can have an impact on petrol prices if we all act together to force a
price war.



Here's the idea:



For the rest of the year, don't purchase any petrol from the two biggest
overseas

Oil companies (which are now one), SHELL and BP...



(Local is Lekka - So buy Sasol / Engen / Excel)

Since the petrol price is controlled by Government, I don't think the price will come down, but it still makes sense to buy from local companies, since that will have the benefit of keeping more dividends inside the country, which will strengthen the rand and in that way help towards a lower price.
