Myspace boycotts gasoline

Some guy in my economics class said that on myspace, there was a day planned to boycott gas. I thought that was the most stupid idea that is a waste of time and is not going to accomplish anything. My economics teacher said that even if there was a successful boycott, it will only be for a day and it's not going to affect the oil industry in the long run. Your gonna have to give in sooner or later if you rely on a car to get around. I think this boycott is absolutely stupid and a day is not going to do anything to bring gas prices down. We need the gasoline more than the oil industries need our money. This contributes nothing to the community, it just gives a day off to the gas station. This is the most meaningless way to protest against big business. A better solution to this would to drive gas efficient cars. Toyota and Honda have some pretty good gas saving cars. Or maybe putting in money to develope an alternative fuel that can be used economically one day, such as hydrogen power. Any other solutions guys? [Edited on 5/3/2006]

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] themasteroftheu you no i got a question, why are you having a conversation with your economics teacher?[/quote] Because he is a very interesting person and his life is alot more interesting than yours. He graduated from Pepperdine University, which is a very good business school. He even started his own business, worked as a police man, and did alot of other interesting things. He makes economics very interesting at times, you can really learn how business increase their profits. I plan to go into business, so I take economics seriously and learn as much as I can from it. And he's rich too, I can tell he is since he can sail around the world in his boat. Seriously, I hate people like you who think school is boring and don't take it seriously. Or look down on people who appreciate education. Like the people in high school that go to beer parties like all the time and never finish homework or study for tests and think a C is a good enough grade. That's why you work for $5 an hour at Pizza Hut with others who wasted their lives. Or if you are still in school, that will be your future. It's not that the teachers are boring, but you are not smart enough to find education interesting. Don't you see why your type always ends up at the bottom, your jobs require very minimum education. While the ones who study and take school seriously, they get the good jobs and succeed in life. My economics teacher told me that people with high school diplomas suffer the greatest unemployment rate than people who graduated from college and have a degree. Oh ya, I'm pretty sure your too lazy to attempt to read this whole essay too. And now your going to ask me why I took the time to write all this. [Edited on 5/3/2006]
