I love things like this from liberals. It shows why their ideas and policies fail. Becuase the don't bother to think them through to their logical and obvious endings.

Take "don't buy gas day" as an example. They claim that if everyone didn't buy gas on a single day that the supply of gas would thus increase substantially and cause a decrease in the price through the increased supply along with the evil gas companies getting the message that we aren't going to pay the high prices any more.

It doesnt work because people who are serious about not buying gas that day just buy the day before if they are going to need gas to get around that day and if their tank already has enough for that day they just buy gas the next time they need it.

Supply and Demand are not affected in any way, shape, or form. Period. Only through substantial behavioral changes on a massive scale over a long period of time could such a scheme actually have an impact.

You nailed it on the head. Libs do not use logic in their thinking. Only feelings... LOL!
