So which gas station will you fill up at?

Whichever one is cheapest.

OK, so that covered every gas station within one tank of gas range of my home.

And the answer is?

This will be just as effective as everybody not buying gas on Wednesday.

It didn't mention QT, as far as I could see. Is that a "good" station?

I was under the impression that Citgo was the major Venezuelan oil importer. Why do business with commies?

I'll continue to buy the brand in which I have stock, to get a return on my investment.

We should be willing to pay whatever it costs to avoid giving one cent to these countries, to our great friends.

Here in the Twin Cities, it's at the Holiday stations. The "Blue Planet Gas" is a product of Flint Hills Resources refinery at Pine Bend. Most of the feedstock is from Canada. Privately held company, owned by the Koch family, very conservative, with libertarian influences. F.A. von Hayek's books in the company library!

More and more we're seeing on TV
individuals who are revamping their
car engines and/or adding devices
under the hoods, etc. to obviate
the use of so much petrol. Now I
know as well as I'm sitting here
at my laptop that if the back alley
mechanic can perform these alterations
the "Heads" in Detroit can not only
DO IT, but improve the methodology!
Watch. Some American entrepreneur
is going to put an ad in the paper
saying he'll modify your car for
X $$, and his fortune will be made.
Not long after that, Detroit will
buy him out and squash the invention.

I've been a Sunoco credit card holder for over thirty years, but I must admit that I only learned of their status as a non-importer within the past few years.

Included on the list of non-importers were Citgo, Sunoco, Conoco, Sinclair and Phillips...

Hess, too, is not an importer I believe.

I DO NOT go to CITGO stations, as they are controlled by Communist Hugo Chavez.

Alaskan oil is Conoco-phllips The pipe line has not been pumped for the last 5-6 years it runs at 40% or less capacity It is a subject of hot debate on talk radio up here the idea put out is that the oil companies see that supplies to the US will be cut off and so they are getting foreign oil while the getting is good. There is a lot of oil being pumped in North dakota on every farm and ranch and there is a lot of Oil in Canada I beleive Alberta and BC I have driven past both several times If congress is not forced to open up oil leases in AK and along the coasts and some gas pipelines when the muslims and their allies in venezuala and now was it Peru or bolivia that followed suit? -- regardless if all would stop selling to the US how far would our oil go -- military first, farming second getting food to the market heating third and then gas to get to work -- to say the nation would hit a speed bump would be an understatement.

This has become a issue of national security. the strategic oil reserves would run the domestic military for only a short period of time. If they would start now a pipeline would come on line 5- 7 hears from now -- it is not something that could be whipped together since our state has a pipe line and is working on a gas pipeline I will drop you guys a few tidbits. The gas pipeline pipe is of a different size and guage of metal than anything thta is made -- the steel industry hast to custome make the pipe --- the equipment as discussed here locally to assemble this pipeline does not exist caterpilar or whoever has to make the yeavely equipment to work with said pipe the digging and prep for the pipe has to be done through permafrost ground that becomes unstable every spring and the weight of the oil or gasline is emmense. they have to build heating and monitoring stations and the have something called a pig that is sent though the il line to clean and inspect it. so to build such a thing involives a lot of cormpanies involving equipment and technology that is does not exist. congress and the senate are dealing with destroying this nation by blocking the nation getting its energy needs in order towards that day.

A bit like checking the field where each head of lettuce was harvested. Political correctness infects more than the Left.
