everyone should do videos on how to bring down gas prices. everyone just commit to TAKING A DAY OFF FROM WORK A WEEK on a designated near-future STARTING date. if everyone, everywhere, in every state, across the united states just vowed to stay home from work one day a week, gas prices would immediately DROP. and they can not replace all those people in a quick enough time to continue losing money in corporations nationwide. so claiming it cant be done because all would be fired is ridiculous.

THE PRICE OF GAS HAS NOT GONE UP. The value of the dollar has just gone down! in 1947 a gallon of gasoline cost about 25 cents. A 1947 quarter contained 1/4 ounce of silver which is worth.. guess what! over $4.50. Which means, THE VALUE OF GAS HAS GONE DOWN. Wakeup people these are shell games.

The government collects almost DOUBLE what the oil company makes per gallon. The underlying problem is ignored.  This is misinformation.
